Preliminary Task Explanation
In our preliminary task, we had to film and edit a character opening a door, person crossing the room and having a dialogue with someone opposite. We also had to include; match on action, shot reverse shot and a 180 degree rule.
Research
Match on Action
Match on action is when a series of clips are edited together, where the editor cuts from one shot to another view that matches the first shot's action. The example we're thinking of using is when Yoli opens the door into the library - we shall use a mid shot, a close up shot, and a panning shot all focused on her opening the door. Shot Reverse Shot
Shot Reverse Shot is when there are at least two characters in a scene, where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character. We shall use this when Yoli and Lauren are talking to each other.
180 Degree Rule
The 180 Degree Rule states that two characters in a scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If you break the 180 Degree Rule it disrupts the scene disorients the audience.
