Preliminary Task and Storyboard

Storyboard -

Analysis -

While filming our preliminary task we had a certain amount of shots to be included. We began by filming a establishing shot this was to introduce the location of the sequence, we created this by a character walking down the hallway. The next shot we used was a close up of the characters hand opening the door as well as that we had to create a match on action shot this is when you cut during an action to another camera angle but showing the action from the same point in time that you left from the previous shot, we incorporated this shot by showing the character opening the door from both sides, this is important as it shows the flow of the scene. The plot of our task was a character walking to meet to talk to another character, the next shot we needed to use was a reaction shot this is to introduce the second character, this is another important shot as it encourages the audience to believe the characters are in the same location. The long shot is the other shot we needed to include this shows the two characters in the same location, this informs the audience of the characters positions relative both to one another and to their surroundings. The final shot is filming a conversation over the shoulder, allowing both characters to remain in the scene. The conversation we used was general conversation. Overall our preliminary task was a success as we included all the shots needed.
