Was ist „schräge Kamera“? – Anmerkungen zur Bestandaufnahme ihrer Formen, Funktionen und Bedeutungen

To understand the phenomenon of the oblique angle properly, firstly it is necessary to gain an approximate overview of different forms, functions and contexts and to observe the style and the operational fields. Secondly it should be investigated what forms of the oblique perspective are used in what contexts and to what ends. This investigation of the ways of describing and thus the dimensions of meaning of tilting the camera will be done within the horizon of a multidisciplinary approach that is oriented on image science.
