CONTINUITY EXERCISE

 Your CONTINUITY EXERCISE

This is to show that you have had a chance to practise 'Hollywood editing' or 'continuity editing', that is, putting together a series of clips that delvers a simple narrative.

Work in pairs or threes. Keep it simple!

What to write on your blog post about this:

State the task and what you set out to do (shoot and edit so that the sequence of shots tells a story - continuity editing). There are suggested shot types below. Your editing includes adding these to identify them. Upload some photos of you at work too! This post belongs under PRELIMINARY EXERCISES

Suggested shots:
Establishing shot
Tracking shot
Tilt up / tilt down
Pan left / pan right
CU
Focus pull / zoom in
Two shot (shot with two people in it)
Over the shoulder shot
POV (point of view shot)
Shot / reverse shot

In the edit, you will LABEL THE SHOTS
If you wish, add non-diegetic sound (like music or sound effects).

When complete, add a report on what you have done to your page PRELIMINARY EXERCISES
