Preliminary Exercise

For our media coursework we must work in groups my group is made up myself, Hayley Sknisley and Louise Vann. For part of our media coursework we have to create a preliminary exercise to show that we have a clear understanding of how to use the camera and editing software on the iMacs. This enables us to show that we know how use a variety of shots such as long shots, wide shots and over-the-shoulder shots as well as allowing us to experiment with the different transitions within iMovie. For our actual thriller opening Louise will be our cinematographer, Hayley will be our actress and I will be the editor.





180 Degree Rule


This is the basic guideline in basic film making which says that two people within the same scene should have the same left/right relationship to each other, if the camera passes this imaginary line it creates a reverse angle. Looking at our preliminary exercise I can see that we will need to avoid crossing the imaginary line as we haven't been able to in our exercise.
