7: Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

During our preliminary task i learnt a couple of rules to do with video editing. for example match on action shot.

A match on action shot is for example a shot from two sides of a door, you shoot someone opening the door and walking in from the outside and then from inside film them opening the door and walking in. When you edit a match on action shot you cut the shot of the person walking though the door at at a point, then match the angle of the door opening from the other side.

Below is a match on action shot from the preliminary task and my film opening.

opening from inside.

opening from outside.

we didn't rely have any dialog that wasn't a voiceover so we couldn't use the 180 degree rule.
