- 3. The 180 degree rule The 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. We will consider this by following the same rule and making sure that we don’t cross the line It would be important for us to use this rule in our filming conversation because if we were to cross the imaginary line then the characters in the conversation would change sides on the screen which would in turn confuse the audience.
- 4. Match on action Match on action is a technique which is used to give the viewer the illusion of one single movement across two separate shots. For example, if you filmed someone catching a ball, you would show a mid-shot showing the whole of the persons upper body and the persons arm begin to move. The next shot would be from a different angle, but would continue to show the person catching the ball. It is very important that the person is catching the ball at the same speed in both shots so that the action looks fluid. This technique is often very difficult to master, because it requires both camera shots and editing to match perfectly.
- 5. establishing shot close up extreme close up 2 shot over the shoulder shot Visual What is it used for and why? A wide shot that covers the whole room or background, used to set the scene, and tell the viewer visually where the scene will be taking place. Almost always placed at the beginning of the scene. Tightly frames a person or an object . Close-ups display the most detail, Close-ups are often used as cutaways from a more distant shot to show detail, such as characters' emotions, or some intricate activity with their hands. The extreme close up shot is used to reveal very small details in the scene. The subject, or a certain feature or part of the subject, fills the screen and is clearly the central focus of the shot. when two people are in the same frame. E.g. People having a conversation, fighting. This shot is framed from behind a person who is looking at the subject. This shot helps to establish the position of each person, and get the feel of looking at one person from the other's point of view.

- 10. Script changes With our first draft we didn’t add any emotions of how the character was feeling, we also didn’t add stage directions and what the camera shots will be. Whereas in our final draft we included stage direction so everyone on set knows what we’re doing. We also included camera shots directions so it makes it easy for the camera crew, as they know what they’re doing. We also emotions so that the audience can get in touched with the characters feelings.
