What is an "establishing shot"?
An establishing shot is a wide shot used at the beginning of a scene to show the setting and context. It provides viewers with a clear sense of the location and the spatial relationship between elements in the scene. Establishing shots often include important details about the environment, such as buildings, landscapes, or interiors, and help set the stage for the action that will follow. This type of shot helps orient the audience and provides necessary background information for understanding the upcoming events.
