High Angle: Subject is photographed from above eye level. This can have the effect of making the subject seem vulnerable, weak (débil), or frightened (asustado). 
Low Angle: Subject is photographed from below eye level. This can have the effect of making the subject look powerful, heroic, or dangerous.
Bird’s-Eye View: A high-angle shot that’s taken from directly overhead (por encima de la cabeza) and from a distance. The shot gives the audience a wider view and is useful for showing direction and that the subject is moving. The shot is often taken from on a crane or helicopter
