EVALUATION ACTIVITY 7Looking back at your preliminary task (the

continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

PRELIM

We have now learned that one

continuous action from different

angles is much more exciting

than just from one side. It makes

the film more appealing to the

viewer as they get a much wider

view of the action. The 180

Degree rule is not broken here.

These shots are all from the clip from walking from the car to the door, which if all one long shot would be quite boring.

PRELIM DOOR

These shots are before the

protagonist walks through the

door and then after, we used

match on action here to show

the continuous actions so the

film could flow. We have filmed

this differently to in the

preliminary task as we filmed it

from immediately in front as

she entered the door.

Shot Reverse Shot PRELIM

We have used shot reverse shot which we learned from

our preliminary task. The shot is shown almost from the

characters eye line, which provides a personal view to the

audience. However we have now learned that cameras

are seen in the mirror and therefore we have since

realised that mirrors are not a good idea to have in the

back of shot...

Shot Reverse Shot

Here is another example of

our use of shot reverse

shot. This is more similar

to the preliminary one

because the characters are

both sitting opposite each

other at a table.

Close up PRELIM

We also used lots of close ups

throughout our film. The one on

the left was actually unintentional

however it is a super shot for the

shock reaction we wanted to the

protagonist. The one on the right

is of the ‘mean’ girl and is used

to really focus on her looking the

new girl up and down in an evil

way, to show her dislike.
