Away from camera/audience: withdrawing (happy or sad or relieved) Stationary camera (dialogue, stabilization) vs. moving camera (action) A long shot and a high angle slower in mis en scene. A closer shot and a low angle faster in mis en scene. Different kinds of camera movement and their significance.
