More Editing

Continuity editing is very important to make the sequence flow and seem realistic. Continuity is when everything from one shot matches up to the next, like all the props are in the same place and the characters haven't changed position hugely.
When putting together our scene, we had to chose which different shot types to use for which part of the scene. If we wanted to have the main character as me, we would chose to see all my speech and some of my reactions, i would have the majority of the screen time. We copied and pasted the mini film to experiment with different editing ways and seeing more of the second actors part.
For an example of choosing shot types, we chose a wide shot of one of Freddie's speech as he also did an action (pointing to the door). This informed the audience of Freddie's body language.
It is important not to jump from one shot type to another, and to then keep alternating between similar types as it will just make the scene repetitive and boring.

We worked we as a team and with the help from our teacher we learnt what each person should be saying behind the camera and what they should be paying special attention to.
