Single Camera Techniques commentary

On the videos on my blog each one them use various different shots such as close ups the reason for this is to show character expressions and to set it up we zoom into the face and the upper part of the shoulders. in are short film we used close ups to show fear and to get a glimpse of the characters emotions. here is a shot from my short film you are able to see his eyes and the top of his shoulder.

we used a 180 degree rule this was used to show both of them communicating \and this also makes the scene look more interesting to the viewer. we simple placed the camera at an angle were we could film both of them. below is one of the 180 degree shots that we used to film. this was primarily used to show confrontation between the two characters.   

in are thriller sequence we did not use match on action due to the fact that were we where filming it was too hard to get the shot right so we decided to continue the shot we were able to film. but a match on action is were we make one shot go to the next this created a lot of suspense and it is also chilling depending on the genre of the moving image.

in are short film piece we also decided to use a long shot we could only do a short as we were filming in a confined environment therefore making it a lot harder to film.

 we primarily used close ups purely due to the fact that we wanted to show off a lot of fear in this short thriller sequence. this were the main shots we used in are webisode.
