Continuity Sequence - Homework 3 (BLK)


What worked:

  1. We played with the convention of an establishing shot and used a shot of feet running towards the camera to give a sense of the action.We attempted to pan the shot of the people running, at the same time as moving the camera up to their faces. We managed to get a sense of action, due to the camera movement. 
  2. We used match on action in shots 2 and 3. Matthew flies into the room as he has just entered the door in the previous shot. The same motion continues, which makes the order logical. 
  3. The last shot is of Anjana going up and kicking Matthew after he has fallen over, and this is filmed at the same angle the first shot was filmed at, of just the persons feet, which keeps the feet theme throughout the sequence. 

What didn't


  1. The second shot we took was meant to be just Matt running, but due to a shooting problem, we had to make a long shot, so made it slow motion. However this does not work, because the first shot is an action shot, and this makes the second shot seem static compared to the first shot.
  2. In shot 4, we broke the 180 degree rule, which means it is hard to tell where Matthew actually falls, because there are lockers on both sides of him. The sense of direction has changed in shot 4 compared to shot 3, when it shouldn't.
