Preliminary Exercise

When filming our shots our group had a problem with the cameras was that we had to different resolution of camera this meant that the size and quality are different. Another problem we had as a group was the light of the room it wasn't light enough and so you sometimes couldn't see so actors. With these mistakes in mind we went back and filmed again, but this time we used one type of camera and we changed the light in the room to make it clearer on the film.    

Preliminary Research

180 Degree rule

The 180 Degree rule allows the person watching a movie see two sides to a interview or argument. This means the people watching the movie won't have to see the side of their heads and instead you will see their faces and therefore should be able to see facual expressions and moods. It also makes the conversation look like they are looking at each other.

Preliminary Reseach

Continuity could be bad or good depending on how well they film the movie. Having a bad continuity could be something as simple as a shirt staine or hair. Like in some "Bond" movies they could have two different angles and the hair could be wet and on the other angle they could be dry in the same point. They could even make a mistake in see unwanted cameras.



These can also be seen in  movies like in Star Wars as one of the soliders hits his head on the door in the final cut. This is a bad continuity which is seen in most movies, good continuity is when you don't make any mistakes.
