Continuity Task

We were set a continuity task to record a short clip with the following;

• A Person opening a door, turning the handle and walking into a room in three different shots. 
• A conversation. 
• Pulling out a chair and sitting down. 
• Not breaking the 180° rule. 
• Shot reverse shot. 
• An action match. 

We made our clip a Noir genre using a black and white filter, Royalty free music and a voice over.
This was used this to practice including specific features and practice continuity. The 180° rule also helped to maintain continuity by ensuring that the actors didn't move within frames. We used this to convert the traditional noir story into a short clip. our shot reverse shot editing technique was used to to show a connection between the characters and an action match on myself when opening and closing the door.
