French term

angle de vues

French to English Art/Literary Cinema, Film, TV, Drama advertisement description
Shooting objectives for an ad.

2. Angle de vues
Il est important de garder un point de vue sur la scène assez naturel. Une vue trop en plongée donnerait un
aspect étrange sur le personnage, et on perdrait aussi le coté immense de la plage en étant trop cadré sur le
sol.
