Our preliminary continuity task is now finished, we produced a piece of film in which a character opens a door, walks across a room and sits down in a chair opposite another character and exchanges two sentences of conversation. There were three continuity principles that were observed they were :-
Match on action
Shot reverse shot
180 rule
We made sure that we used the technique of cutting from one shot to another and that it
matched the actions and the pace of the first shot. This creates an impression of continuity although
we may have filmed the shots weeks apart. If a character begins an action shot and completes it in
the next, a visual 'bridge' is created which acts to disguise the cut from one to the other.
If we were able to change our continuity exercise in any we make sure our filming was of better quality
and we would make our angle shots more professional.
we would also try and film it outside of school so it didn't look like pupils had made it.
Overall we feel that our exercise went really well considering how long we filmed it in, we feel that our
storyboard let us down the most as it didn't look professional and the drawings wernt very good.
