closeups
Tight camera frames
Closeups is the plural of closeup, a camera shot taken at close range, showing a subject in detail—typically a face filling the frame.
In film and photography, closeups create intimacy or draw attention to important details: The director called for closeups of the actor's hands.
The term extends to any detailed examination: a closeup of the scandal.
