We sometimes call a point-of-view shot a “first-person shot” or abbreviate it as “POV.” It is the camera shot we see very often in home videos, where the camera operator is holding the camera at eye level and walking about But you can also effectively use POV shots to show what the Sasquatch sees as it creeps through the quiet camp at night.
Steven Spielberg used POV shots effectively in aws to show us what the shark was seeing.
