Preliminary Task - Brief

Below is the brief for my preliminary task.


Continuity task involving filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character, with whom she/he then exchanges a couple of lines of dialogue. This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule.


From this I know that continuity plays the largest role, I must make sure that the match-on-action shot is clean and fluid and that the 180 - degree rule is met.

I must complete these criteria within the task otherwise the brief will not be met.

Having this brief is good practice as I will have to follow a brief when it comes to producing my final product.
