Preliminary Task first draft

Yesterday I shot my preliminary task. I obeyed the 180 degree rule, included shot reverse shots and demonstrated match on action. The objective of this was to film a person opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down opposite another person, then they will exchange lines of dialogue. I decided to capture a sense of comedy into my preliminary task to liven the atmosphere from the contrast of a dull, plain room. I chose to dress my actresses in cat suits to create the overall look I was aiming for. I used iMovie Experimental to edit my camera shots to make my video flow continuously.

After analyzing my first draft, I decided it just wasn't interesting enough because of the lack of variety of camera shots. I decided to shoot again and add point of view shots, more shot reverse shots and continued to obey the 180 degree rule.
