Short western film and research Into the 180 degree rule
My teacher has asked me and the rest of my class to recreate a short western film that represents the traditional values of a western shootout scene. This is my first taste of work in regards to A2 media and also my first piece of work in A-Level media in which I had to work within a group. My group was given a camera after watching an example of a western shootout in class. This gave us a rough idea of what is in a western shootout in regards to props, locations, camera angles and attire. When our group is finished the work we then must being the post production process which involves the groups to use a software which has not been used before called Adobe Elements 12.
My group have created a story board where we are able to look back at the work and shoot specific shots based on the story board we have created. It is significant for my group to use the story board effectively as it allows me and my group to easily refer back to the story board and overall have an idea of what clips we are shooting at all times.
The 180 degree rule is: The rule states that the camera(s) should remain the same side of an imaginary line. The line is drawn perpendicular the camera’s viewpoint in the establishing shot of the scene, The rule enforces continuity of the film An example is that in a car chase scene, if the car is travelling from right to left, the next shot must also be shot from the same side, meaning the car has to enter the frame right to left again. The same applies for football matches and other sport.
