In this first short video by Steve Mc Curry, you will explore how to get creative with your shot composition and capture visually interesting images and video footage to include in your digital story.

The tutorial below examines a number of shot types and angles that can be used by any filmmaker, from the total beginner to the more experienced storyteller, to give their digital story a professional feel.

The video featured here is really fantastic in terms of the depth it goes into regarding camera angles and highlights different focal measures and equipment that the more expert filmmakers can use. What I really like about this video though for ALL levels is the examples it includes which tracks the camera angles as the scene plays and how sometimes, less can be more in terms of the number of camera angles used (from 4:18 to 7:35 in the video).
