Evaluating the Preliminary Task
1) Our task was to make a 20 second short film, using match on action,
shot-reverse-shot and keeping the 180 degree rule.
2) Our first shot was of a boy walking down a corridor with a teddy
bear. We then had a close up of him opening a door. We fulfilled the
task of match on action by filming him coming through the other side
of the door and matching the two shots together. Next we had a two
shot to show the other character in the film. We then used the
technique of shot-reverse-shot to show a conversation between the two
characters. Our last shot was of character one walking back down the
hallway. We tried to keep the positioning of the characters central in
the shot.
3) I was very happy with the final result as the match on action and
shot-reverse-shot worked really well together and there was no
continuity errors. Also, the 180 degree rule was kept throughout and
the camera was held steady. We could have improved the sequence by
adding a shot of character 1 walking back out of the door.  I think we
worked very well as a group as we each assigned ourselves a task and
fulfilled them.
I feel very confident using the camera and imovie and I can now add
music, crop clips, trim clips and change the speed of the piece.
