T2-60 PRELIMINARY TASK - YR12_2009 from SATMEDIASTUDIES on Vimeo.
For the preliminary exercise our group needed to demonstrate 180 degree rule, match on action and the shot/reverse shot. these are all types of continuity editing.
This is an image of the 180 degree rule taken from wikipedia, it is very important concept in the filming production. It is an imaginary line which cuts through the middle of the scene, from side to side with respect to the camera. Crossing the line changes the viewer's perspective in such a way that it may cause disorientation and confusion. For this reason, crossing the line should always be avoided!
Match on action shot is when you cut during an action to another camera angle but showing the action from the same point in time that you left in the previous shot. for example, in our video there is a close-up shot of Character two opening the door, then the next cut is of character two walking into the bathroom. the shot is important to continue the flow of the scenes.

A short/reverse shot is when one character is shown looking at another character and then the other character is shown looking "back" at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, this technique is used when filming an conversation.
I think our group did succeed in demonstrating the basic rules and continuity editing. However, at the start of the scene you can here the background noise created by the dolly used for filming and also background noises from the classrooms. If we had longer editing, we should of softened the background noising or made a soundtrack to cover the fault, this makes our video look weak and unprofessional at the start of the video.
Overall our group did succeed in the basic rule but with more time given we could of made it look more professional. the purpose of continuity editing is to give the effect of smoothness to the filming.
