Broadcast graphics: all two dimensional visuals especially prepared for the television camera such as studio or title cards, illustrations, maps or charts. Electronically generated titles, charts or animation—even if appearing three dimensional—are also a part of television graphics
Close up: A tight shot that shows a person’s head/face or an object
that is about that size.
Cross cutting: Shots from two sequences happening in two different
places are cut together in such a way to give the impression they are unfolding
at the same time. Used more commonly in movies than in news stories.
Establishing shot: lets
audience know where we are. This might be the outside of a building or a
scene-setting landscape or an overall shot of the place where a part of your
story takes place.
Extreme close-up: A very tight detail shot that shows important texture, details or small action.
Jump cut: An
unnatural edit where a person or object in the frame suddenly “jumps” from one
part of the scene to another. In news video, you should avoid this kind of cut.
The way to avoid jump cuts is to shoot with sequences in mind; by having lots
of detail shots to choose from; and/or by using the appropriate editing
technique described above.
Long shot: a shot in which the person’s entire body fits in the
frame.
Master shot: similar to an establishing shot, it sets characters in
their place in the scene and/or in relation to each other. If you are going to
cut between shots of multiple people doing different things in one place, this
can help the viewer understand where the different people are located within
that single physical space.
Medium shot: only a part of the person fits in
the frame, but we still see much of the person’s body. This might be from the
waist up or from the chest up.
Montage: A series of loosely related close-up shots cut together to
give a unified impression of the scene or activity happening in a certain
place.
