Camera angles- Close up

 Using a close up shot in photography or film making tightly frames a person or an object,displaying the most detail and concentrating on usually just one subject ie, in the picture above, the shot has captured the baby's face and not the rest of his body,this is so they can detain and show the importance of all the fine features.In a close up a background isn't included as everything else is just a blur. In a film using a close up would enable the audience to go inside the mind of a character, as facial expressions and emotions would be shown more clearly, these shots are very intimate as in reality you wouldn't let strangers get that close to your face. Over using close ups can leave viewers being confused and uncertain as to what that are seeing.
