Continuity clip.




Evaluation:
Once we got the instructions on what to do for our continuity sequences we were assigned groups which we could not choose. We began to think of ideas and once we found one we all agreed was good, we storyboarded the whole clip. We had to include match on action, shot reverse shot and we had to abide by the 180 degree rule. Once we were happy with our storyboard we began to start filming with a flip camera. 
We first had issues with the steadiness of the camera because we wanted it to look as smooth as possible, therefore we eventually used a steady cam and it looked a lot better. We had other issues with the continuity because we forgot to move certain furniture when we were shooting from other camera angles. We had to reshoot some of the clips to make sure we were thorough. 

When it came to editing, we realized that we missed out certain parts of the action and it made it look jumpy. This caused it to not run as smoothly as hoped and some of the continuity was bad. Overall, I think the group worked very well together as we were extremely motivated and got the work done. The end result stuck to the rules and instructions we were given so therefore, was successful. If we were to do it again, we would film more than we'd need to just in case we forgot any action.
