Definice a Význam "medium shot"

What is a "medium shot"?

A medium shot is a camera angle that frames a subject from the waist up, or from a similar distance that captures both the subject and their immediate surroundings. This type of shot provides a balance between detail and context, allowing viewers to see the subject's facial expressions and body language while also including enough of the environment to understand the scene's setting. Medium shots are commonly used in dialogue scenes and interactions, as they offer a clear view of the characters while maintaining a sense of the space around them.
