Preliminary Project

For this preliminary project, in a group of 3 we had to create an opening sequence to a film. This opening sequence shows some technical aspects such as; Match of action, shot reverse shot and sticking to the 180 degree rule. We demonstrated match on action through the motion of walking through the door. Followed by shot reverse shot and the 180 degree rule when 'Coach' and 'Jack' sat down talking.

WWW:

• The match on action flowed through the cut well, keeping the continuity of the sequence.
• We included a eyeline match when 'Jack' looked at the phone.
• We did not break the 180 degree rule.

EBI:

• The shot reverse shot was too rushed.
• If we added background music during the titles.
• Use lighting more effectively for moments of greater suspense.
