Camera Angles - Low Angle

A Low angle looks up at the character which makes them seem extremely powerful and important, it increases the height and gives a sense of speeded motion. It is placed below eye level, with the camera looking up at the subject. This can make the audience feel vunerable and small by looking up at the character. The background of a low angle shot will tend to be sky or ceiling, the lack of detail about the setting adding the disorientation of the viewer. The added height of the object may make it inspire fear and insecurity in the viewer, who is psychologically dominated by the figure on screen. In movies the character who is mostly seen from a low angle is a villain or the bad person because it automatically lets the audience know that this person is powerful.
