Continuity Sequence

For this we had to involve filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character, with whom she/he exchanges a couple of lines of dialogue. This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/ reverse shot and the 180 degree rule. I think our film contained all of these requirements. Our film was about a girl going to meet their friend because their friend wants to tell them something important, which in this case was, "I'm in love with you," at first the girl thinks it's weird because her friend is a girl but then her friend says, "No it's alright I'm a man." There was only something slightly wrong with ours which we realised when we were editing and that was that the eyeline of each character during the conversation didn't match up so it wasn't keeping to a Point of View shot. We then had to reshoot the conversation and add it in to what we had already edited. Other than that I think our video was quite good and worked well.
