Judging by the films me and my partner have watched recently we decided to stick to a small variety of shots used often in drama films. Some of these shots are, close ups, extreme close ups, medium shots, pov shots, etc.
Our choice of shots will allows us to keep a close relation to the characters, yet allowing a little room for the background and surroundings to be noticed. For example in scenes were our main character (peter) is having deep thoughts we would most likely chose to use a close up, maybe even a medium shot. This will allow the audience to focus on our characters facial expressions, further connecting the viewer to our film opening.
For scenes like conversations or just general filler shots we will use pov shots, over the shoulder shots, medium shots etc. This allows the audience to focus on what our character is doing and in a small amount of shots to focus on the mise en scene elements.
To conclude my post, we plan on using these shots to involve the audience, and make sure they are getting the full experience of our drama film opening.
