CONTINUITY EXERCISE

 Aim: storyboard and film a brief conversation / confrontation between  two parties:

  • draw and photograph the storyboard.
  • establishing shot (= where the action takes place, to 'establish' it for the audience
  • mid shot of character A already in place
  • character B arrives, making a two-shot (a shot with two characters)
  • a series of shot-reverse shots delivers the dialogue (over the shoulder shots that will be edited together in order)
  • another two-shot
  • bring the narrative to a close in any way that fits
  • post the storyboard in a post entitled CONTINUITY EXERCISE
  • edit and upload the shots.
