Plan


For my preliminary task there will be four people in my group including me. In my group there is me, Matt, Chloe and Ashleigh. Within our group we have different roles; me and Matt will be using the camera and making sure that Chloe and Ashleigh know what they are doing as they are doing the acting in the scene. We will all be a part in the editing and putting together the sound and the task its self.
We have had a location selected to do this we have made sure that the room that we require is free and we have also asked for permission to be in the room, the location will be a inertia room which is a classroom. We have checked that the room is available and that we can use it. We will be filming and editing our film within the lessons and within the film we intend to involve some editing techniques such as shot/reverse/shot, match on action and 180 degree rule. Our task will involve someone walking through a door to meet another person, where they shall exchange a few lines or dialogue, this will then be edited and be under 30 seconds long.

Match on action-
This is a type of an editing technique, where the editor puts two shots together that have either different shot or angle type, these are then put together to create continuity in the scene.
Example's of match on action is :



180 degree rule:
This is where the camera moves in a 180 degree motion in any direction given that the characters in a scene don't change places, the camera has to stay on the same side of the characters/objects in the scene to create a successful 180 degree shot.
Examples of this are:
(this is from the film Harry Potter during the duelling scene)

Preliminary Task

Shoot/reverse/shot:
This is when a character is seen looking at one person then it changes to the other person usually used with a over the shoulder shot during a conversation in the scene. Again it is an editing technique.
Examples of this are:
