Continuity Task







We were given our task which was to take 15 or so different shots of two characters (one enters the room). We had to make sure we didn't break the 180 degree rule and have shot reverse shot in our final piece. We used James's house as our location and we had james and Charlie in our piece. We did a quick storyboard and we created a quick story which we had 4 days to film. After we had filmed the shots and we were happy we had at least two good shots of every angle, we had to edit the piece together and add a tiny sound clip to complete our continutity task. What went well with our continuity task was the fact that we managed to shoot the shots, edit and add sound in a resonable ammount of time. However what was bad was the fact that I made mistakes such as being in shot when the camera was on and not realising that my reflection was in the window for one of our shots.

EVALUATION:

overall we got 32/60 marks. What was good about our work was: the effective use of sound (diegetic/non diegetic), our continuity and our framing. Our SRS was also good as was the fact that we stuck to the 180 degree rule.

To improve our work we should: use more CU/MCU which would have helped improve our piece a lot. Our framing in some areas was bad so we should improve on that. Our other target was framing to forground point.

Overall I think our piece was really succesfull.
