Preliminary Exercise

Evaluation

Continuity Editing

Continuity editing is when you take you clips and edit them together to make it look like it's continuously running  through without it jumping. 

180 Degree Rule 

The 180 degree rule is when there is a central line and you have to stay on the same side when ever filming, say your filming a conversation between two people and your doing a over the shoulder shot, and you start filming over character one's shoulder on the right hand side of them, and then you switch to characters two's side you have to film on the left hand side of the character.


Match On Action

Match on action is when you cut during an action to another camera angle but showing the action from a different angle but making sure  it picks up from where you cut from so you keep the continuous flow of the scene.

Shot/Reverse Shot

 A shot/reverse shot is switching the camera between different characters in the same scene. The camera will be focused on the character who is in the frame looking at the other character who is out of the frame. This is normally used in conversation or reaction scenes.

This is the continuity video that me and my group made, so we got used to the 180 degree rule, Overall I think we understood all the rules and created a good sequence.
