shot terminology: a "special"?


Joel Corkin

Recommended Posts

In watching some behind the scenes video of David Fincher's various films, I noticed him calling for a "special" of a given actor, seeming to indicate a specific type of framing. Does anybody know what the term "special" means in this context? Can anyone call out a good book or resource covering this and other such intricate terms (beyond just wide, medium, two shot, etc.)? Thanks!
