Worms Eye View

Worms Eye View:



Here is an example of a worms eye view, it is of a passing steam train. In this clip from this view it gives the train a more powerful role, you can see the wheels grinding and hear its mechanics and this hightens the trains power. A worms eye view is a shot from below looking up, the reverse of the birds eye view which is from above looking down. It is used in cinema to give the subject importance and dominance.
