At the beginning of the year we learnt about different
skills and ways to make our film look professional and creative, we then showed
these by filming a short piece which showed our skills in filming, editing and
being creative in our ideas. Within this short piece we used such techniques as
match on action, shot reverse shot, follow the 180 degree rule as well as using
the rule of thirds.
Editing, the first technique that we used was shot reverse
shot, this meant that we needed to shot two angles of the same piece and then
cut them both so that they can be placed together which will look like we just
switched the camera when filming it. We used this technique when the phone is
picked up and answered. I believe that I have progressed in this technique as I
have made it look much more professional and it was cut at the right moments.

Filming, we used the 180 degree rule which meant that the
camera would not cross the side of which the first shot was shown as this might
have disorientated. We ensured that the opening sequence kept to this rule
throughout the piece, I have improved this skill as I have managed to keep to
this rule in all the shots which was a challenge. The use of match on action
was when the phone was picked up, one character began to pick up the phone but
then we switched the camera shot and angle but the phone was still getting
picked up at the same point. We also used the rule of third all the way throughout
the piece as well as being very creative with the shots.
The clip below shows the 180 degree rule.
Creativity, I used a lot of creativity within the cinematography
as well as planning out the different scenes we will be doing. The screenshots
below show the creativity of cinematography I used within this piece of work.
