Media 1000 word
The document discusses techniques for filming continuity including the 180 degree rule, shot reverse shot, and match on action. The 180 degree rule involves keeping characters and objects on the same side of an imaginary axis between shots to avoid disorienting the viewer. Shot reverse shot cuts between one character looking off screen and another character facing the opposite direction to imply they are looking at each other. Match on action matches cuts between shots to create a seamless transition and the illusion that no editing occurred.

- 1. WARP RECORDS George Evelyn (also known as Nightmares on Wax or DJ EASE), is a DJ and electronic music composer from Leeds, England. His music is released on Warp Records and was one of the first releases on the label. Evelyn got his start in the music industry through an interest in hip hop and on joining a local break dancing crew. He met Kevin Harper and together they released their first album in 1991, a techno-edged record entitled "A Word Of Science: The First And Final Chapter". This was the beginning of Nightmares on Wax's career. Today, Harper is a solo DJ and Evelyn is accompanied by Robin Taylor-Firth
- 2. Evelyn's father and sister introduced him to the soul music of Quincy Jones and Curtis Mayfield. Later, as rap music became more popular, he was fascinated by the likes of Rappers Delight and Buffalo Gals. In 1988 he joined a break dance crew where he befriended Kevin Harper, and the two later formed Nightmares on Wax. Their music fell into a category of artists including The Forge masters, LFO, and Unique 3. Commenting on their style, he has said "We wanted to do tracks that had hip hop beats but experimented with ideas
- 3. After A Word of Science, Nightmares on Wax disappeared from the music scene for four-years. Evelyn went on to run The Headz Club in Leeds and developed their record label, Poverty Records. He returned to music making with a track on the Mo' Wax Headz compilation. The next Nightmares on Wax album release was Smokers Delight in 1995, by which time Harper had left to pursue a career in DJing. Evelyn was joined on keyboards and programming by Robin Taylor-Firth. He brought in a variety of musicians, writers, vocalists, and rappers, allowing him to tour. This album also marked his entrance into the American market. Carboot Soul was the first album to be domestically distributed through the US label, Matador Records. The album featured soul singer Sara Winton, Hamlet Luton on Bass, Chris Dawkins on guitar, and Robin Taylor-Firth on keyboards with the Pure Strings Orchestra on strings. This was a change for Nightmares on Wax, as they began as a DJ-based group. Their newfound contribution of live musicians allowed for the group to operate more like a band than a studio act. However, the drum machine was not replaced with a live musician, remaining true to the band's original technology-based tracks. No longer in partnership with Kevin Harper, Evelyn had the opportunity to expand what he and Kevin Harper started. He explains that "Doing the live side proves there is more to the music. People have something more tangible to relate the music to and it gives us the chance to connect with the audience. Also I've always had this idea of creating a big band – which is what we call our sound. The main priority for Now is to prove that we can perform music. But we're not ignoring the fact that we come from a studio, technical background. We just want to mix the old with the new. That's why, at the moment, I don't have a live drummer. The sound of the beats is what makes Nightmares."
