The way the camera

itself appears to look at the people (or animals or objects) depicted; less

metaphorically, the gaze of the film-maker or photographer.

The gaze of one depicted

person at another (or at an animal or an object) within the world of the text

(typically depicted in film and television media by a subjective

‘point-of-view shot’).

The gaze of the viewer

at an image of a person (or animal, or object) in the text.

The gaze of a person (or

quasi-human being) depicted in the text looking ‘out of the frame’ as if at the

viewer, with associated gestures and postures.
