4. Our preliminary tasks helped us massively in the
continuity development of our opening title
sequence. It helped us grasp the concept of
continuity editing and learn new techniques that
are integrated into films and television programs
in the media industry, which help increase the
realistic feel. Also, while creating our preliminary
task it helped us both improve the quality of our
editing and show us how to properly script for our
opener, as it was when we first were introduced
to Celtx, it taught us the format and structure of
scripts and how to create them.
5. 180 Degree rule
The 180 degree rule is an invisible line between two
characters when filming, the idea of it is to stop
switching the characters position in terms of what side
of the screen they are on so that it minimises viewers
confusion
6. Match in action
Match in action is another editing technique that we learnt, it is
used when jumping between shots, its used when a character
is about to do something, usually starts doing it, then it will go to
a different shot and he will continue the action, for example, an
actor opening a door; There could be one wide shot where the
character begins to open the door, then jump to a close up of
the character continuing doing so. So it is effectively matching
an action in multiple shots.
