Camera angles, close ups, the works...

[Jason T. Davis]

This is something that recently got my interest, because I don't know if writing angles, close-ups, etc... is something that I should incorporate in my writing.

Right now, I'm working on a new pilot, and I'm going down a different road with my writing style. So, I just wanted to hear everyone's opinions on writing these types of camera movements.

Do you think its something that's needed to get the visual aspects correct, or do you think they are distractors from the really important stuff (characters, plot, flow of script)?

I've freed myself of the burden of camera angles, close ups, etc. I do think one can get across the same things and it flows a lot better and more beautifully. I say, go for it, Jason!
