Reflection on the Practice Film

Firstly, I would like to say that I am going to completely repeat the production of this continuity experiment. I am considering this as merely a test run so I can establish what is wrong and right with my filming technique.

Starting with the bad points, whether you had noticed or not, my shot reverse shot was incorrect, both shots being shot over the right shoulder of each person. Whether you had noticed or not would have meant that the viewer would feel distorted.

Along with this the camera angles were slightly over angled, and looked odd.
The plot has the man walk in and then walk straight back out after about 15 seconds, so this does not go well for continuity and the viewer will feel a bit confused. for example, "why did the man come in in the first place just to leave straight away?"

The good points though would be that he opening was good, in how i can the camera pan across as the man walked in. Also the sound is good, as in you can clearly hear the footsteps of the man walking in and also you can hear hem speaking clearly.
