Splash Project

This is another video that me and Matt Harwood have done together. We used his camera and his house and both took the photo's. Once again I used iMovie to edit them and put the sound on.
Hope you enjoy it

Stupid Street Part 1

This is a short film called Stupid Street part 1. It was mostly filmed by Matt Harwood and he then gave it to me to Edit and finish. To edit this film I used iMovie on my Mac and I also used a free music website called Zedge to get the music for the end of film during the credits.

Camera Shots

Match on Action


Match on action shot means that when something happens in a scene then when there is a cut the same piece of action must be going on. this is an example on continuity editing and is very important in helping the audience continually understand what is going on.

Shot-Reverse Shot


Shot reverse shot is a film technique where one character is looking at another character and this character is looking back at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing opposite directions the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other.
Shot reverse shot is a feature of the classical hollywood style of continuity editing.

The 180 Degree Rule


In film making, the 180° rule is a basic guideline that states that two characters in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse angle.
