For our preliminary task we had to create a short sequence of a conversation using different shot types. We had to think about our shot types to keep the audience engaged and so that the sequence did not get boring.
Although one member of the group was a away our original story board did not fit our new ideas, however we did not have time to create a new one. Even though we had a few set backs to begin, and originally found it difficult to think of some new ideas, our final sequence worked well.
In one section we had a problem with continuity editing as i was facing one way in one shot and then the other way in the next shot but this problem has helped me to be careful when filming to watch out for things like this.
We also included all the shots that were required. I feel that our match on action shot flowed smoothly from the previous shot to create a fluid transition. It was very difficult to do the 180 rule with two people to film and act so we had to film all our sections of talking and then cut and move them. Despite this being an unconventional way of doing it, it proved to work well and looked effective.
From doing this task i have learned how to overcome problems such as not having enough in our group. I also feel that i have become more confident using a camera now and know more different shot types.
