Summarize what an objective, subjective and POV shot are. What are the key differences between an objective, subjective and POV shot? Why are they different?
Objective: a shot that consists of the characters in the story from a observer's point of view
An objective shot allows the audience to feel included in the story, but as an "invisible" being or a "fly on the wall" that cannot be noticed from the character themselves. This is a way of composing a shot that is least involving for the audience.
Subjective: a shot that seems to be looking through a character's eyes
As opposed to the objective shots, a subjective shot actively involves the audience into the story as if they are one of the characters. This type of shot can be used to cause additional emotional involvement from the audience.
POV shot: displays what the character sees, but also includes the character themselves
POV shot is the combination of both an objective shot and a subjective shot, because it involves the perspective of the character while including the actual characters themselves. This creates a more objective view of a character while maintaining an invisible stance.
