Cinematography
Dutch Angle
A camera shot where the camera is tilted to one side, so the horizon is not level.
In Depth
Also known as a canted angle, this technique is used to create a sense of unease, disorientation, or tension. It suggests that something in the scene is 'off' or wrong.
Example
"In 'Mission Impossible', Dutch angles are often used to heighten the tension during spy sequences."
