Preliminary exercise

This is mine and fellow student Yasmin Ryan's preliminary exercise. We were given a quick brief on how to use the camera equipment and told to go out an film a short sequence of shots of a conversation between two people. I think that overall our sequence went quite well but we did come across two stumbling blocks; we forgot about the 180 degree line and there is a shot mismatch when our first female character leaves on the left hand side of the screen and then re-enters on the right. Our second mistake was a jump near to the end of the sequence where we simply just didn't shot the shot properly and had to cover it the best we could with our limited amount of shots we had taken. These mistakes were not major though and didn't affect us terribly, these are things that i will make sure don't happen in my main project and is a lesson learnt.
