Bird's eye shot


Hey guys, I’m going to talk about Bird´s eye shot, it refers to a shot looking directly down on the subject. The perspective is very foreshortened; making the subject appears short and squat.


This shot can be used to give an overall establishing shot of a scene, or to emphasize the smallness or insignificance of the subjects. These shots are normally used for battle scenes or establishing where the character is. It is shot by lifting the camera up by hands or by hanging it off something strong enough to support it. For a scene that needs a large area shot, then it will most often likely to be lifted up by a crane or some other sort of machine.


This shot is usually used to show the place where the movie is going to take place and to show all the things that are happening there.


We can see this shot in almost all the movies, because this shot makes the viewer focus in it, and let them understand it more.

  1. The Bird's eye shot is a useful shot that help to capture scenes in the sky we can notice everything that we want and we have a better an idea is more useful to use in scenes like when we want to capture something very big.
