Shot Variation

Short Variation is the technique when different camera shots are used in one scene, but it adds effect. The cameraman uses different types of shots to add effect to the shot and the scene, but it matters what shot they do to add the effect. For example, close ups make the shots intense and exciting. The video above shows the last battle on the bridge in the second movie called 'Indiana Jones'. At one point, Indiana Jones wraps his hand around the rope on the bridge and he aims his sword a the middle of the bridge. It then goes to a close up, making the shot exciting and making the audience think, "what's he doing!".
