OCR PRELIMINARY
TASK.
Zoe Gimlinge.
THE TASK
The task consists of someone walking through a door and
engaging conversation with another person with a minimum of four
lines of dialogue. The aim is to have a video between 1 and 2 minutes.
THE 3 RULES
The task must consist of the 3 following camera shots:
• 180 degree rule.
• Shot reverse shot.
• Match on action shot.
WHAT ARE THEY?
180 degree rule: If the camera does not follow the 180 degree
rule during a conversation or a scene between one or two people it
disorientates the viewer as we are unable to work out the position of
the character within the scenery. So we imagine a line joining the two
people together, it would mean that you always ensure that the camera
is on the same side of the 180 degree line.
Shot reverse shot: Cutting
between two people having a
conversation, can help to contrast
them and make them seem
different. It highlights their
differences, allows us to see the
reactions of characters and also
prevents us to use only one static
mid shot.
WHAT ARE THEY?
Action match: A shot that
cuts to another continuing a
piece of action or movement
between the shots. His allows
the audience to see a smooth
action despite a cut in the shot
and from different directions.
Pitch: Our first pitch was of
a girl walking in late for
detention. But then we changed
our idea because that idea was
used by most so our second and
foremost pitch is of a couple
going into a car.
OUR IDEAS
Actors: we decided to do the
action our selves, so I would play
the girlfriend and Bradley would
play the boyfriend, while
Shannon filmed the shots.
LOCATION
The location we used was at Bradley’s house in Winslow, so we could
use a house and a car to make it seem more real.
The openness of the location was effective because of the bright
natural lighting in the morning.
We did however have problems with the continuity because of the
cars passing by.
STORY BOARD
Bradley enters the shot and I follows suit
Bradley and I both leave the house through the front door
Bradley walks down the drive as I locks the house
I approach the car to get in
I get in the car as Zoe shortly follows
STORY BOARD
Zoe gets in the car
I run through items that Zoe needs to remember when she realises she has forgotten something
Zoe exits the car
Once Zoe gets in the car I start the engine
The shot then cuts the car driving away
CONVERSATION
(At the door walking towards the car)
Zoe; “Lets go before we are late!”
Bradley; “Are you sure you have got everything?”
Zoe; “I’m sure.”
Bradley; “Are you sure? I know what you are like.”
(As they get into the car)
Bradley; “have you got your keys?”
Zoe; “Yes”
Bradley; “ What about your phone?”
Zoe; “Yessssssss…. Okay no sorry I will be one minute”
(Zoe Leaves the car)
THE SHOTS
Match action of them leaving the house, Shot reverse shot of
them going into the car (one opening the doors and one climbing in),
180 degree rule with them talking in the car.
LOG OF EACH DAY
Monday 3rd December: We did all of the planning, so we chose a
location, our storyline, the characters, the shots and the conversation,
we hadn’t chosen which angles we would do the shots in yet because
we wanted to test all of the different shots first.
