task 18/1: lens angles

A  wide-angle lens makes the subject look taller and wider, while zooming in makes them look shorter and thinner, possibly than they really are - a close-to picture will also make the cheap bones and chin stand out, and the zoom will almost squash the image. Therefore, a wide-angle lens should not be used for overweight weight conscious people.

A low angle would be used to make a person seem very tall, or powerful - as the viewer would appear to be looking up at them - while a high angle would be used to make the subject look less significant than something else in the picture, or the viewer - as the viewer would be looking down at them.
