My own examples of shot types...

Over the shoulder shot: Also a cantered angle...
Looking from behind a person at the subject. This particular shot is good for things such as TV Dramas when two people are having a conversation and the subject is the one creating the conversation. The cantered angle is also apparent in this particular shot because the photo is clearly not straight.


Two-shot: 

This is a comfortable shot of two people, framed similarly to a mid shot. This would be good in a TV Drama because there are often scenes when two people are needed to be in a shot, such as if someone is having a fight then both people should need to be in the shot to allow the audience to see the action.

Wide shot...also a cantered angle:

The subject is visible but the emphasis is still on placing her in her environment. This is good for a college magazine because the environment is shown clearly as is the subject. This would then entice people to buy the magazine because both the college and at least one student is visible.

Point of view shot:

Shows a view from the subjects perspective which is useful to make the audience feel involved and like they are in the subjects shoes (pardon the pun) which would entice an audience because they like to feel involved.

Weather Shot: 

The subject is the weather, usually the sky. Can be used for other purposes. This is useful to set the scene of a particular shot for example if there is a horror scene the weather shot would show a thunder storm rather than a bright sunny sky.
