Evaluation 7

For our media project a two minute trailor had to be created.

When producing our preliminary task we were quiet new to all of the camera shots needed to be shot and which are used very well in real media products. Therefore we had to research around the shots and look at what needed to be included within our task. We then became familiar to all of camera shots which were needed and known for being in media products. These are the 180 degree rule, shot/reverse shot and the match on action shot.

This picture shows how a shot/reverse shot would look like when filmed and the position of the camera places. The Shot Reverse Shot is A film technique where one character is shown looking at another character , and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other


180 degree rule- The 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters  in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. 


Match on Action shot- A match on action shot is when some action occurring before the temporarily questionable cut is picked up where the cut left it by the shot immediately following. For example a person walking through a door. the first shot is a long shot of the subject walking throught the door, and using match on action shot, we place the camera inside that room to show the subject walking into the room through the door.
