There different shots used in the Wizard of Oz. are discussed below:

Shot 1: Wide shot. Look back to Dorothy in black and white. Dorothy unlocks the access to the color world of Oz. She moves into Oz and stays. Right on the ball, the camera moves into Oz first via the opening, accompanied by Dorothy looking again in the view. Light chords performing magical melody, birds are twittering in the background.

Shot 2: Close up. Dorothy sees Oz and looks nearby, touches Toto, steps away of the projectile. Angle right on; no camera change. The music is still pleasing, light quality examines ambient.

Shot 3: Long-shot. Observe beyond Munchkin City. Beginning with Center frame, Dorothy gazes throughout the Munchkin City, tours nearby about ten steps. The camera moves gently right, lifting above and viewing all of Oz. Moving the frame to the center and at the very movement, Dorothy re-enters the stage.
