My opinion on blogging

My opinion on blogging
Personally, I think that blogging is not very popular at this point in time. However, I feel that this will be a good chance to try new things and have new experiences. This will be good for learning new ways to do work and I hope to get to grips with it soon.

Group

I have decided to work with Connor Ball and Dan Lomax as they are both my friends and we work well with one another. I feel that this is the best option because Connor has media experience and Dan has drama experience.


Technique Research







Match on Action
Match on action is an editing technique for continuity editing in which one shot cuts to another shot portraying the action of the subject in the first shot.
The 180 degree rule
The 180 degree rule is a filming guideline that participants in a scene should have the same left-right relationship to each other, with filming only taking place within the 180 degree angle in which this is maintained in a conversation, for example.
Shot reverse shot
Shot reverse shot is a continuity editing technique used in conversations or simply characters looking at each other or objects.
