Use of eye level angle : Wolf of Wall Street (Martin Scorsese, 2013) the eye level shot is a very neutral shot and causes a very neutral effect on the audience. The only effect it creates on the audience is a sense of verisimilitude and inclusion. This is quite specific to the wolf of wall street and the effect is created when the fourth wall is broken. Since the actors are at eye level it makes the audience feel similar or connected to the actor as if there is no difference in social status or power. D.O.P’s will use this to make the audience feel more included in a movie.

Birds eye view : Avengers assemble (Joss Whedon, 2012). There is a particular scene in this film where a Birds eye view is used to look down upon Chris Hemsworth’s “Thor” and Chris Evan’s “Captain America”. The D.O.P has chosen to use this shot because it causes the audience to believe that , in this case, Thor and Captain America are vulnerable or at least weaker than what is looking down on them. It feels like the camera angle is actually what is looking down on them as if the audience is the “monster” towering over Thor and Captain America (a hypothetical example) this makes the audience feel dominant.

Canted angle shot :Inception (Christopher Nolan, 2010) uses the canted shot very well. Generally, the canted shot is used when a character is sick or drunk or when something abnormal is happening. In this case it is the most latter of the three. In inception canted angles are often used to exaggerate the abnormality of the scene. It really makes it obvious to the audience that something is off and not right.
