Post #2 - 3rd 6 Weeks.

 Medium Shot

Contains a figure from the knees/waist up and is normally used for dialogue scenes, or to show some detail of action.

 Extreme Close-Up
As its name suggests, an extreme version of the close up, generally magnifying beyond what the human eye would experience in reality.

 Crane Shots

Basically, dolly-shots-in-the-air. A crane (or jib), is a large, heavy piece of equipment, but is a useful way of moving a camera - it can move up, down, left, right, swooping in on action or moving diagonally out of it.
