In the first week i have learnt about the different camera shots and movements and the ways it is seen by the audience and how they give different impacts to the scene. 

Extreme long shot/Establishing shot : An extreme long shot is used to show the setting, time etc..
Medium shot: A medium shot usually captures someone from the waist up. this shot shows/identifies the character or object 
Close up: this shot usually captures the characters head and shoulders, also used to show the reaction, emotion and details of the character.
Extreme close-up: showing a feature from the face. this way that part of the feature that is shown will dominate the screen.
Point of view shot: subjective shot taken from the point of view of a participant or character in the action. for eg. a character looking at the door handle about to open the door.
Action shot: Generally a mid shot capturing the action. Eg running across the street.
Two shot: Generally showing s shot of 2 people facing, possibly engaging in conversation. usually used in TV Shows.
Reverse shot: The reverse of the Over the Shoulder Shot.
