Long Shot

Shown above is an example of a long shot. Usually, but not always, the opening establishing shot of the movie is a long shot, it is called a long shot because the camera is placed far away to capture a large area of view. The long shot usually introduces the beginning of every scene. It sets in motion the audience's perception of time, place and logical action of the scene that is about to transpire. I think this technique was used to emphaise the particular secne and help create a dramtic and action filled tv drama.
