Possible meanings:
Point of view is there to show the point of the character
within the scene to give the audience a realistic feel to their viewing
experience. To see the scene through personas eyes can create/show an array of
emotions.
Close up helps establish an emotional reaction on a characters
face to show the audience what he or she is feeling, another reason for close
especially when used on objects is to create suspense or show importance to
that specific object.

Establishing shot does exactly what it says, it sets out the scene, and it introduces the audience to the scene and establishes characters and place. High Angle looks down upon a character to show that the character is not important where as if a character is seen looking down upon the other character it shows superior. On the other hand, if the camera is a low angle this implies that they are feeling threatened by a superior character or they feel small compared to the world. Two shot is there to serve the purpose of conversation to show the audience characters and who they are talking to. |
Arc is used for the audience to gain a feel of the character
to understand them better, how they dress, their height, their body mass; it is
like the camera is examining the characters world.
Tracking shot is used to keep up with the pace of the scene
in order to show pace through a scene tracking an object or a character shows
importance. The audience instantly knows the watch out for either character or
object the camera has tracked.
Crane is usually used when a tall building or a character is
seen within a scene the camera will make a movement of up and down to show the
audience the full length of something within that scene.

Tyler you have provided a good overview of some of the main camera shots you might use in your video, I would maybe suggest illustrating these with images.
