Sizing the scene-mixing long,
medium and close-up shots
Continuous use of long shots or close-ups will give
your productions a monotonous "flat" impression. To
avoid this, it is important to consider exactly what it is
that you wish to "say" with every shot. Indeed, it is
possible to change the impression that any subject
makes merely by changing the way it's shot.

You don't have to change the subject to alter the
scene-you can achieve a different effect by changing
the size of the subject itself within the scene.
