Continuity Exercise 1



We failed to successfully achieve the Continuity Exercise as we had a lot of inconvenient jump cuts which ruined the smooth transitions between a couple of shots. From the shot where the actor walked towards the door and look at his phone, there was a quick jump shot which didn't run smoothly and therefore it didn't look very good. We also didn't stick to the 30 degree angle rule in the majority of shots. You can identify some of the shots as the actor seems to placed in the same position.

The framing next time needs to be improved. With our first practise exercise the focus wasn't right as we hadn't placed the camera correctly and therefore the framing of the shots have not been done properly.

We have included all of the shots that we had planned. We took a lot of time to position the camera where we thought would work for the exercise and meant that we could work on our editing skills with each shot.

Our piece could be improved by the shots and framing which we can achieve next time we have a practise go at filming and editing.
