High angle: A high-angle shot is a cinematic technique where the camera looks down on the subject from a high angle and the point of focus often gets "swallowed up". This angle looks down on someone, it makes the person or object small and insignificant. This is used in a TV drama when they want to know someone has more power than someone else.
Low angle: is a shot from a camera angle positioned low on the vertical axis, anywhere below the eye line, looking up. This angle looks up on something or someone making it look bigger than it really is. It is the opposite of a high angle. It is commonly used in TV shows.
Slanted angle shows an object or someone from an unnatural point of view. It can be used ina drama to show things only the audience can see. The horizon line of the shot is not parallel with the bottom of the camera frame.
