Having watched the two videos that label key MICRO features I would like you
to choose a TV Drama extract to do the same to.
Task:
Choose an extract (3 mins is more than enough);
Print screen key camera techniques and label them;
Write a bit about each camera technique – why is it used? What information
does the camera technique give the audience? How does the camera
technique move the story along?
