There are a number of standardized camera shots (or frames), the names of
which are commonly derived from varying camera-subject distances.
These camera shots are:
the long shot: plano general
the full shot: plano entero
the medium full shot (also known as American shot because of its frequent use in westerns. This was because a shot that started
at knee level would reveal the weapon of a cowboy, usually holstered at
his waist): Plano Americano
the medium shot: plano medio
the close-up: primer plano
the extreme close up: primerísimo primer plano o plano detalle
There are other variants, such as the medium close up (between medium and close up), etc.
A Flashmob recreates Rembrandt's painting, The Nightwatcher, in a Dutch shopping mall.
A culturally-minded group staged a high-art flashmob to celebrate the return of Rembrandt Van Rijn’s famous painting The Night Watch to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
The nightwatch by Rembrandt
Rembrandt’s painting was completed in 1642 and depicts Captain Frans
Banning Cocq and his lieutenant, Willem van Ruytenburch, leading out
their city guard. The Rijksmuseum is due to reopen on April 13th
following a 10-year renovation.
I've found this interesting game on the National Gallery of Art website. You may try it at home!!!!
