A two shot is used to allow the audience to be able to see the relationships between the two characters. To achieve this shot you must have to characters stood in shot. I have noticed that it doesn't particularly matter whether the characters are talking or not because you are usually able to compare their facial expressions. A good example of a two shot would be a mid shot with two characters in shot, this allows the audience to view facial expression as well as body language. Two shots are often used at the beginning of characters relationships (or when they first meet). In this shot you can see the two characters discussing something over a meal in a cafe or restaurant. We know that one character is much older than the other so instantly we can see that he maybe giving him advise or sending him on some sort of mission. This clip also uses the "vertigo shot" which is used to emphasise a character or make the audience feel fatigued. It's created by bringing the camera backwards on a dolly while zooming in with the lens. It makes it look as if the background is zooming in.
