Continuity piece

Our continuity piece, was a really enjoyable experience.Within it we had to include an example of the 180 degree rule, match on action and a variety of angles.

The ideas started flowing as soon as we knew what to do, the story line came first. Charlotte, Katherine and I came up with the idea of two students exchanging drugs for money, in the toilets. Another student walks out and catches them while exchanging the drugs and makes a sharp exit. The short film ends with the character looking very shocked (you would do if you had just been caught exchanging drugs!).
We found two willing actresses, and Charlotte was kind enough to step in as an actress too.

Throughout the piece we have two "match on actions" and obeyed the 180 degree rule. The other shots that where included where: Long shot, Extreme close ups, Close up, Medium shot and "over the shoulder". We also included zoom and pan to show detail and keep up with the moving characters.
This is our Story Board.
