Film practice

Our first practice film, as two other of my group members and I were absent from our media lesson due to an exam, our other group member, Ola had his introductory lesson in match cut and this was his second practice. Although we had missed a lesson on our introduction to matc cut, we believe that everything went quite well as Ola gave us feed back on what match cut was; an editing technique that links two pieces of related action, resulting in a single smooth flow imagery. Also, as most of the group members were absent, Ola had to make decisions for our storyline and debriefed us afterwards on what the storyline was.
After this brief introduction, our task was to have a particular person carrying out a task or doing something specific and other group members to film them from differents angles and shots. As a group, we were working very well with each other enthusiastically, and were quickly catching up on the work we had missed out on the previous lesson.
I believe that as a team we made a great job and successfully following the forms and conventions of a real film, not making things too complicated, keeping it simple but effective.
