The three different types of shots
This is our first video filmed with 3 different shot angles.As you can see here we film a wide verity of shorts and included shot-reverse-shot which was a very hard shot to do as you have to use a variety of angles.180 Degree RuleThis guideline was put in place so the or audience doesn't get confused of where both characters are standing or who they are talking to. It works like this:one character must stand to the left and the other must stand to the right and they both have got to be completely in line with each other and facing each other. (this is to make sure the audience knows that the two characters are talking to each other.)Shot-Reverse-Shot This technique is used in nearly every movie or television programme and sometimes its sometimes even used in music videos. It is mostly used when to characters are conversing with each other. It also gives the audience a chance to see the facial expressions of each of the characters faces.
We can see here from this picture how shot reverse shot is used.
Match On ActionAlso known as "cutting on action" which is actually an editing technique in which one shot cuts into another shot so you can see what is happening in the other shot. This creates a visual bridge which is when you can clearly see something changing from shot to shot.
This technique is used in a lot of television programmes and movies because it can easily keep an audiences attention because is makes the scene seem more interesting as there seems to be a lot going on. It is a useful technique because it still keeps the same atmosphere (E.g. if you were building suspense) And it stops you from either moving to a completely different surrounding or just staying in the one place which would make it seem boring.
