Storyboard Drawing, Shot Sizes and Framing

In this post I have inserted a storyboard of the several shot sizes that can be used and which will be used throughout the preliminary task. To prove that I can differenciate between the several shot sizes I have also inserted my own photos that I took on a digital stills camera showing examples of each shot size.
