Two Shot - What is Two Shot ?


a cinema or television shot of two people together.

If there’s two of you in the frame, react to what the other actor is giving you as you listen carefully to them.


This is a medium shot that shows two characters within the frame. Pretty straight-forward but can be pivotal in establishing relationships between the characters.

ICONIC EXAMPLE: Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta) shooting Marvin in Pulp Fiction (1994). Yep, a two-shot of a two shots.
