Preliminary Project

In this preliminary project, we had to create a short opening sequence that included; someone walking in through a door, sitting down and having a short conversation with someone. Alongside this we also had to include, shot reverse shot, action match and the 180 degree rule. Our short film consisted of continuity editing, which is where the editing seems invisible and unobtrusive and flows from one scene to another. This sequence must use the same characters and ensure the continuity of time, space and action.

WWW: 
-We followed the 180 degree rule, so each scenes nicely flowed together.
-Also, our short opening sequence consisted of continuity editing, so it looks very naturalistic.
-Our use of editing, created shot reverse shot between two characters, to portray the conversation they we're having and make it clear to the audience who was saying what.

EBI:
-Could of used a medium close up of Aaron, before he gets the knife out, to help make the audience feel more situated in the space and make it easier to tell what's going on.
-Fluidity of editing before Chris gets up and runs, make sure it flows with the scene before.
-The lighting is very bright, which washes the characters face out, this will make their facial expressions harder to see so the audience will find it harder to connect with them.
