Close Up

"Get ready for your CLOSE UP!"

Getting ready for a close up is a common phrase that sometimes comes up in American culture and it relates to movie making. A close-up is to show the details of a scene or a severe reaction to something where the actor's reaction is necessary for the scene to move along.

This is where the acting and make-up have to be good. If either are off, a smart audience will know it. Pay attention to when close-ups are used in SBM and what they are used for.

Thank you for the information Mrs. Clark. Also, we have a HW about this for friday we will be analysing the close-ups at the music videos. We have two opportunities and I guess I'll be choosing the song "Beautiful".
