Project 4: Continuity Clip - BLK HW 3

                                                                                                                                                                          
The Task:

We were instructed to film a continuity video with only 6 shots, using only the pause function on the camera, meaning we had to carefully plan what shots and framing we would use.

Our Accident:

We attempted to film a video of a girl tripping and falling onto a bench next to a boy.

What worked:

-Overall the continuity worked well and the narrative could be conveyed through the 6 shots

-Large variety of shot framing keeps the audience interested and gives many perspectives

-Master shot gives the audience an overview of proximity

-We managed to create a match on action

-180 degrees rule was kept to

-Camera angles were varied

-Camera techniques such as panning worked well

What didn't work:

-Clips needed to be cut at either end

-5th shot would need to be omitted to prevent a jumpback

-Last shot is too static and too long compared to other shots

-many shots were too similar
