Discussing Camera Angle

We have been discussing camera angles in terms of illustration and film and here is a handout. Click for larger version. On the same topic is Scale or Framing Heights (How much of the subject's height is seen in the shot) each has a different meaning. Do not over use any of them, a variety of shots and angles keeps your work alive. I call it the Hershey's Kiss Principle: If you eat one or two Hershey's Kisses, they are satisfying, but if somebody poured a truckload of them down your throat, you wouldn't like them much, or at least you'd tired of them.
Thanks for stopping by, have fun drawing/boarding.
