Preliminary Task Evaluation

Preliminary Task Evaluation 

The 180-degree rule is a basic guideline regarding the on-screen spatial relationship between a character and another character or object within a scene. An imaginary line called the axis connects the characters, and by keeping the camera on one side of this axis for every shot in the scene, the first character is always frame right of the second character, who is then always frame left of the first. A match on action is when you see two people exchange something from both sides and perspectives. An eye line match is when the characters eye lines are both at the same height in the scene. A shot-reverse-shot is a series of shots between two characters in a continuous fashion.

We incorporated the 180-degree rule when we filmed the dialogue between the two characters to show both perspectives. The match on action was used to show the transfer of the phone between the two characters. The eye line match was used throughout the scene but mainly when we filmed the 180-degree shot. The shot reverse shot was used when we recorded dialogue.

The film making process went reasonably smoothly, this is because we were clear with what we wanted and how to achieve this through the shots we used. The story board we had was the main structure to the film making process and made it easier for us to film. However it could have gone better if we completely stuck to the story board as at times we did not use it and improvised on what we were doing. At times the filming was made difficult as students would leave lessons to go on break, this meant that we had to get the shots we need quickly so people were not in the background of the shots.

We learnt a lot of skills on adobe premiere as we were new to this software and had chance to experiment with it. Cutting down clips was one of the most used tools and was extremely useful, this is because we would often start recording a few seconds before and after to make sure we had the right framing on our shots. Adding titles was also extremely straight forward as all we had to do is create them and then drag them into where we needed them. The tools that were on adobe premiere were very useful in making our film good  as it helped make it look smooth so it did not seem confused.
