High angle shot

This shot is a less extreme version of birds eye view, and is acheived using a crane which elevates the camera. The character becomes part of a wider picture and the angle makes the character look vunerable because people look at children from this angle and children are usually powerless. It is often used in films when a taller charcacter is talking to a shorter one. As you can see, the boy in the shot looks vunerable and powerless.
