1. Does your film use continuity editing so that the sequence of events are clear and easily understood by the viewer?
Yes, some of the events are clear and therefore convey sequence of relevence to wrds the audience at to put the idea across to them. But we have missed a few editing moments for our video.
2. Have you followed the directions in the brief? (A character opens a door, crosses a room and sits down in a chair opposite another character. An exchange of dialogue occurs.)
Overall we have followed the directions in the brief, but we have changed quite abit of our short movie. Our two characters that we used (Lee Arnold and Kieren Tyler) did exchange diolougue but at the start of the short movie.
3. Have you used match-on-action?
Yes we used the match-on-action when the main chrarcter (Lee Arnold) opes the door, also when he enters the room and shows him waliking to the chair and sits.
4. Can you explain what match-on-action involves?
Match on action means that when something happens in the scene. For example when the main character in our movie walks down the corridor, then the following match-on-action shot was when the actor enters the room and makes his way to the computer and sits down. This is an example of a consistent editing and it is very important in helping the audience continually understand exactly what s happening.
5. Have you used shot/reverse shot?
We have used shot/reverse shot when the main chracter walks up the corridor and then walks towards the camera, then the camera reverses the shot from behind the character. Also we use this when both characters are exchanging diolougue, as the camera goes from both chracters point of view.
6. Can you explain what shot/reverse shot involves?
Shot reverse shot is a film technique where one character is shown looking at another character and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character shown. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, this then gives the view of how both chracters are looking at eachother.
7. Did you observe the 180-degree rule?
Overall yes we did. We observed the ‘180- degree rule’ when the main actor talking to the security Guard at the door.
8. Can you explain the 180-degree rule?
The 180 degree rule is where you film a scene/dialogue and not to change side or moving in different way.
9. What role did you play in the making of the preliminary task? (e.g. Filming, acting, editing, Equipment organization etc.)
In the preliminary task I took on several roles, such as: Filming, editing and directing. I took these roles on as I wanted to experience more than one role to see what I am good at.
10. How would you assess your contribution to the group?
To asses my contribution to the group, I think contributed quite a lot towards the group and the task that we do.
11. What have you learned from the process of making your preliminary film?
Overall I have learned that team work is acquired to film a movie, also I have realized that editing film isn’t easy as it seems. But everything that I have learned from this is that planning is the very important key in making a movie.

You have answered six questions out of eleven, Rudi. That's not good enough. Your title "Q? and Ans" is indicative of your overall lack of care. Your entries in this blog will form the basis of your assessment for this unit and will help you to do well in the reflective unit next year. If you fail to complete tasks, I will mark you down.
