1. Shot Reserve Shot.
I used the shot reserve shot in my preliminary task and I
learnt that this type of shot is best used when a conversation
between two people is happening. There was a lot of talking
in the preliminary task but there wasn’t much talking during
my film opening, therefore I did not use the shot reserve
shot even once in my film opening.
Match on Action.
It is when you follow the main action of a specific character,
for example if the camera is concentrating on a character
and if that character is to open a door, the camera will zoom
into his hand when opening the door.
180° Rule.
The 180° rule is basically keeping the camera on the same
side of the line which lies in between the two characters
when facing each other while having a conversation. The
rule is that if the camera is on the left side of one character
then it must be on the right side of the other character
unless the camera changes sides while behind one of the
characters.
