Introduction to Prelim Task

The brief for our Preliminary Task was that our footage must include:

- match on match action
- shot-reverse-shot
- the 180 degree rule.

Our individual storyline could be anything but we had to include someone opening a door, crossing the room, sitting down opposite the other character and a few lines of dialogue.

Continuity in any film sequence is extremely important because if your shots are not linked smoothly and your lighting/props/scenery etc are not continuous, it can make your work look very amateur and nobody would want to watch it. During this task we will need to ensure we consider the continuous nature of the scene, in practice and preparation for filming and editing our thriller openings.
