Extreme close up is used to show facial expressions.
Wide shot- this is used to establish the background, can associate the characters relationship surroundings.
Pan- Pan is used to follow a character maybe when they are walking. This used because it can show dramatic effect towards the character and to the audience.
Zoom- Zoom is basically in and out, this shouldn't be done when filming half way through this should be done before you start filming because it will look unprofessional.
Tilt- Tilt is used to detail in a character or for example if they are on a bike the camera can tilt to get it at the right angle.
