Our Preliminary Task

For our preliminary task we had to include three things - Match on action, 180 degree rule and shot reverse shot. Doing this task helped us experiment with the three different techniques and gave us a better idea on what circumstance you would use them when making a movie. 

 Aswell as using these three techniques we decided to experiment with different camera angles and such as the over the sholder shot, mid shots and the low angle shot. We used the low angle shot on my feet when I enter the film, by showing only my feet creates an enigma as the audience dont know who I am or what my intentions are.

To create the match on action shots we filmed the senario three times and then edited them together on Adobe Premier Elements 10. We made the last match on action shot fast paced as we wanted to make then genre of the mini film action. This would give us a better insight on how different techniques create the genre for any movie. 

We used the shot reverse shot technique when the reply of the question is asked, "I don't want to tell you". We also had to film this more than once because we would not have been able to record the conversation all at once as the camera on the opposite side would be in frame of the other camera, so we recorded it twice and then cropped and edited everything together to give the effect it was filmed once.
