We were told to film in the dining hall at the school which complicated things, as we had initially planned the environment to be a classroom. However, we were still able to follow the necessary criteria which was to demonstrate match on action, shot reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. This was accompanied with standard cinematography techniques such as a close up, panning shots, mid shots, long shots and over-the- shoulder shots.
When it came to the editing and post-production, not much was needed to modify the clips to produce the final short film because the main thing we needed to manage was the length of specific clips and increase the volume.
Overall, everything went more or less according to plan and schedule and the task was completed; so the next task is to hand the short film to Mr Hobbs on a USB for next lesson.
Below are scanned images of the preliminary task brief and a guide on how to go about the required cinematography techniques. Also, there is a video explaining the 180 degree rule which applies when doing a shot reverse shot.
