Mid Shot

Close Up 
A close up shot is a picture which shows a fairly small part of the scene, such as a characters face. It shows the head and shoulders of the person. Close ups are usually used to show a characters feelings or reactions. 
Extreme Close up
An extreme close up shot shows a characters eye line. This can usually be used to see the eyes tracking across the screen. This shot is also able to show emotion as well, as you can see the eyebrows and eyes which allows the viewers to see the emotion or expression on someones face.
Worm Shot 
The worm shot is a shot that is taken from low down. This usually shows the character to seem larger than usual. Allowing them to look more threatening, or can allow emotion to shown from a different angle.
