Where you put the camera is where you are visually and emotionally putting the audience.

So the camera can prepare the audience for a sequence of events that is about to happen,
by highlighting key aspects of the story.

The camera also shows the audience which character they should be focused on.
Especially when in a conversation. Depending on what they consider more important the camera might be focused on the person talking or on the one reacting. However
cutting back between the two can show the two personalities.

The camera can also display a change in power between two characters by changing
the angle in which they are seen.

The camera can also remind the audience of a key plot in the story that has already been revealed to them, making it easier to follow
the story.
The Camera Can Remind

The camera can also enhance someone's status over another by looking up at them to
make them appear bigger or look down down, to make them come across as weak. The
camera angle can also be tilted to create a sense of distress.
The Camera Can Enhance

Example Six
![Page 17: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
A long shot can be used to highlight a fast paced sequence where the characters moves
a lot, it also shows the his surroundings so you know where he is.
Camera Can Reveal a Location
![Page 18: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Example Seven
![Page 19: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The method of cutting back and forth between two people can also create tension if with each
cut the camera gets closer.
Camera Can Build Tension
![Page 20: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Example Eight
![Page 21: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Use the same methods to display their characters in certain way but they approach
the filming and editing differently. In live action they have a master shot and they edit
closes up, etc. into that. However with animation, there is no master shot, the editing
is done before hand. So you have to really think about how you want your character to come across and how you want your story to
be told before animation begins.
Comparison
![Page 22: Role of the camera](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5590cf611a28ab11398b4681/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Placing the camera in these various positions, distances and angles you can create a more
power personality and story.
