A group of characters want to discuss something privately amongst themselves, so they [[Huddle Power|form a huddle]]; the camera POV switches, [[Worm's-Eye View|looking directly upward]] at the characters' heads and torsos as they talk. This is incredibly common in sports movies, where it appears during "the strategic discussion during halftime". (And in (American) Football movies, it appears even ''more'' frequently).
 
This is also seen when a character is in bed, thrown onto his back, or in some other kind of upward-looking position; in this case, it's a [[POV Cam]]. It occurs frequently after a character has [[Fade to Black|blacked out]], leading to a suitable freak-out when he wakes up and sees loads of people staring down at him.
