Preliminary Shot by Shot list

After my practices at editing I was given a small brief for my preliminary task. This was that it consisted of a person walking into a room and meeting someone and having a conversation with them. It also needed to have the 180 degree rule, match on action shot and shot reverse shot present in the clip. I first created a synopsis.

1. Establishing shot of the Sixth Form Building.
2. Flowing shot of character 1 walking through and towards the room.
3. From outside show character 1 walking into the room.
4. From inside show character 1 walking into the room. (Match on action shot)
5. Character slams the door to get attention.
6. Characters 2’s head rises up fast.
7. Character 2 sees character 1 come toward her. (Shot reverse shot)
8. Character 1 looks at the character 2.
9. Character 2 looks at Character 1 while they sit down.
10. Both characters look at each other in silence.
11. Character 1 breaks silence with the start of a conversation. (180 degree rule)
12. After conversation ends character 2 walks out quickly and violently.
