3 picture story

3 PICTURE STORY.
The basis of Documentary.
1 ESTABLISHING SHOT; an OVERVIEW, which sets the scene.
1 MEDIUM SHOT; normally, but not always, shows the main action.
1 CLOSE UP SHOT; often a symbolic image determining the overall MOOD of the 3 picture set.
nb; these shots are also the BASIS OF CINEMA, though film requires additional linking shots called CUT INS nad CUT AWAYS to deal with the movement through time and space.
