Short Film Editing:


My group made a short film which had to include the three continuity processes that we had learnt. We made sure that that used 'Matching Action' when the actress opens the door. We zoomed in focusing on the action which follows up from the first clip when she goes to push the door and then the camera moves from behind the door then the front of the door. This is a still image of the clip we had used:  


We had also included shot reverse shot when both actors are having a conversation at the end of the short clip. We used the 'behind the shoulder angle' and showed the back of one character and the face of the other. Here is a still image of what it looks like: 


We attempted to use the 180 degree rule but we had broken the biggest rule which disrupted the continuity. This is because we filmed over the 180 degree line that we weren't supposed to cross. This made the clip less smooth and therefore confuse the audience.
