Editing and film techniques Extreme Long Shot/ Establishing Shot The camera is placed the furthest distance from the subject. In this type of shot the setting (background) is emphasized while only certain details are revealed about the subject. In this shot we can see minimal details on Jamal and Salim. We can see the Taj Mahal in the background, and the brothers in the foreground. It is a establishing shot because the emphasis is on the Taj Mahal and how they are moving forward from that.
