CONTINUITY EXERCISE
Wednesday 16th September
Our task for this lesson was to make a short clip in order to put it into practise.In our group of five, we firstly brained stormed ideas on what storyline we wanted for our continuity exercise. We decided that the main plot was going to be based on “Who wants to be a millionaire?” On the final questions with Tom as the host and Charlotte acting as the guest on the show. Preesha was the director.
Some of the problems/challenges we faced whilst on set, were that the green screen was not wide enough to fit the frame (e.g. the over the shoulder shots). To solve the problem we had our actors swap seats and when editing we would reverse the shot, so we would not break the 180 degree rule and this gave the audience the illusion that they had never moved.
We also had to deal with the background noise on set of the other groups interfering whilst we were filming.
Good work: you have planned this carefully to include a wide variety of shot types, then edited together to create a coherent narrative.
