Continuity Edit


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9z_xharA6o&feature=youtu.be&safe=active

My continuity ask involved filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character adding some type of dialogue. I had to demonstrate Match on action, Shot reverse shot and the 180 degree rule.

Shot reverse shot was used when the girl looked in the window, the camera changed to the two boys together, then the camera goes to the girl again. She was walking past a window and saw her boyfriend with another boy and went to ask him what was going on.

Match on action was used when the girl opened the door from the outside and then we see her come in through the inside in a different angle.

The 180 degree rule was used as the boy was always filmed on the left hand side of the camera and the girl on the right  hand side.

The story line is that a boy and a girl are in a relationship and she is walking and she sees her boyfriend with another man. She goes to ask him about it. They are in an empty classroom arguing about the man that was with her boyfriend. She tells him that she cant be bothered to deal with him. She slaps him and walks away. He is crying looking sorry for himself.

This was my first time attempting to film something with a story line of any sort. I was excited to start to be creative with ideas and i liked how i could make the story line come true.

I had to make a new YouTube account so that i could put my Continuity Edit up on my own personal account where i can put anything video related up and embed it onto my blog.
