The document describes different filming techniques used by a camera operator to create effects that engage viewers. In the first scene, the camera operator filmed from behind a bush to obscure the view and make it seem like the protagonist was being spied on. In the second scene, the camera operator slowly revealed more of the shot and followed the protagonist to give the impression they were being followed. In the final scene, the camera operator crouched behind a garden wall to film from a low angle and show the protagonist's authority over the person spying on them.

This is an example of an area I filmed in. I created the effect of the character being watched by filming from
behind the bush which created an obstruction in the foreground which created the impression that the
protagonist was being spied on.

Here is another example of an area I filmed in.
I wanted to show that the character was being followed, therefore I slowly revealed more of the shot and
followed the protagonist.
I hoped to create a sinister effect that would engage the viewers in my opening title sequence.

A final example of an area I filmed in can be seen here. I crouched behind the
garden wall in order to create a low angle, showing the authority and status
that the protagonist has over the person who is spying on him.
