A locked down shot is a shot that is very rarely used in films. It is used to make the audience feel uneasy and to give them a hint that something bad is about to happen. A locked down shot is when the camera remains stationary, usually placed onto a tripod with the pan and tilt tightened so there is no movement. It would be used when there is dialog between two characters or when there is action in a scene, however the camera remains in the same place and some action happens off camera. This would make the audience feel unsettled because they would want to know what is happening off camera.
