Point of View Shot






Point of View shots are used to look through the eyes of a character, making the audience see what they see. This creates a sense if realism for audience. Horror and thriller genres often use this technique, to suggest someone spying on someone else, while withholding the identity of the 'spy'. 

We use a mobile camera to generate the POV. The use of our hand-held camera mimics the movement of our observer. However we used some shots of the observer to confirm whose POV it is.
