Over The Shoulder Shot	This shot is used looking over the should to see something or someone else. It can hide someone’s identity and make the audience want to know who the character is.
Point Of View Shot	This shot shows the characters perspective of the scene. The audience will feel tension and feel like part of the story.
Low Angle Shot	A low angle shot is used to make the character look more dominant as they are higher up and show to be more powerful.
