What is it?
These refer to the camera’s point of view of the action
being filmed. Therefore techniques such as camera angles, framing and camera
movement are incorporated.
How has it developed?
I think that shot variations have developed as camera
equipment’s also developed. For example framing and movements such as panning
can only be achieved with a variety of lenses.
Shot variation can be dated to as early as D.W Griffiths time where
editing started becoming more popular.
Is it still relevant?
As most editing foundations, shot variations are always
included while filming so that directors could portray as many views of a
subject as possible. Cross-cutting and clear-cuts have made transitioning from
different shots much easier.
