Preliminary Task Evaluation

Our preliminary task was avery quick, 40 second film. We had been given a list of techniques to use, and these were: Match on Action, Eye line match, shot reverse shot and 180 angle degree rule.

Straight away, we started with a Match on Action. We had Manjeet walk through the door from the outside and then cut to her coming through the other side. The match on action was successful, and I feel this could be something we'll use when doing our Thriller.

We then attempted doing an eyeline match, with me looking towards the clock then cutting to the clock ticking. I believe the shot could be better, so if the group decided to use this in a real film we'd have to make sure it was filmed better. i believe it isn't completely clear to the audience its an eyeline match.

We then shot the shot reverse shots through the use of dialogue. This meant we could have a lot
of shot reverse shot because we had a fair
amount of dialogue in the film. Obviously this would be effective in a final film, and something that would be the first shots we'd mention when doing the planning/ shot list. We also tried to film this sticking to the 180 degree rule.
