Practise production

Last week at Suffolk one we made a practise production, in order to get to grips with the camera usage, the techiques used in filming (like shot/reverse shot and the 180' rule). The production was a simple one, a persona walking through a door, sitting down and exchanging a few lines of dialogue with another persona. And then we got to grips with the program final cut pro for the editing process. Clearly some more work needs to be done here. The way we filmed I think worked quite well as we didn't break the 180' rule and we used all 3 techniques (shot/reverse shot, 180' rule and match on action) however the match on action is less noticeable. The one issue we now face with filming is the fact that in 2 of the shots we have left the tripod for the camera behind on of the personas. All problems will be avoided when the final production is in the making and I shall make new posts as and when appropriate.
