Deep focus composition uses a short focal length lens to keep all three planes of a scene - foreground, middle ground, and background - in sharp focus, creating an illusion of depth. It allows the cinematographer to exploit the size and placement of people and objects in the frame to convey meaning and conflict. The arrangement and scale of objects between the planes can determine meaning in a film, with small exaggerated objects in the foreground emphasizing important meaning to the audience.
