Continuity task: filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room, sitting down in a chair opposite another character with whom she/he exchanges a couple of lines of dialogue. This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180% rule.
Our work
For today's lesson we did a filming practical. The meant that we had to choose an option out of 6 ideas so we could make a short film. We chose the option about Australian security.
We started off by filming our two actors coming through the door, one dragging the other through the door. The shot was taken from a front angle. Once they were through the door we filmed from each side of the person who was talking (shot reverse shot), then we switched the camera angles each time the other person was talking.
We then edited the film using iMovie timing out the parts that didn't go as expected. It was quite hard as there was a lot if back ground noise so we had to crop it out.
