Mid Shot

Mid Shot - A mid shot is used in a conversation. It shows the top half of the person but making the audience think they are looking at the whole subject, because in a casual conversation, one would not pay attention to the lower half of a persons body while conversing. Therefore, this part of the shot is unnecessary.


A mid shot is used in this clip at 1:16 when the two female characters have a conversation, but the shot does not show their whole body, only their upper half which shows each reaction to each other without losing effect but zooming too much and only showing their facial expression.
