Recently in class...

I learnt about 3 different techniques used in film which make the piece interesting and are also fundamental guidelines to follow when filming.
I studied Match on Action. Match on Action is basically where you film various shots of the same movement so it follows through naturally to show the scene. Jeni Hatt, Chris Rizzi and myself all had a go at editing these sequences which show the idea of Match on Action...

We also studied the 180 degree rule and Shot reverse/ shot. To see information on these, check out:
