Description of Ideas

For our Prelimary task we were asked to create a short piece of continuous media that includes a shot reverse shot, a match on action, a short conversation between two people and making sure we used the 180 degree rule. Our initial idea was to do a mystery genre as we thought this would keep the audience interested. We decided to incorporate a spy theme as it would be something different. We then realised that wouldn’t work as well and kept the same idea but changed it to detective. We thought we would use match on action when Louise walked through the door and came out the other side. We are going to use shot reverse shot when she is sitting at the table opposite Joe saying "are you willing to cooperate Mr Gregg’s?" The shots we are going to use in this film are Close ups, mid shots, tracking, Dutch shot. We decided we would keep our cameras on the left side at all times to stick to the 180 degree rule.
