    When considering the camera angle, one must remember that each shot is its own individual shot, and the camera angle should be taken in context of the scene and film. A dutch angle , also called a canted angle or even simply the tilted angle, is an angle in which the camera itself is tilted to the left or right.

    First angle projection is often used throughout parts of Europe so that it is often called European projection. Third-angle projection: In this type of projection, the object is imagined to be in the third quadrant.

  9. Vertex (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_(geometry)

    A vertex of an angle is the endpoint where two lines or rays come together. In geometry, a vertex (pl.: vertices or vertexes) is a point where two or more curves, lines, or edges meet or intersect. As a consequence of this definition, the point where two lines meet to form an angle and the corners of polygons and polyhedra are vertices. [1] [2] [3]
