Skills Audit: Filming and editing preliminary match-cut exercise

Filming our match cut was very fun and interesting as we learnt the difficulties that came with the '180' degree rule.

Coming up with the storyboard was pretty simple but trying to stick to it or work around the problems we encountered was a little harder. We ended up finding a compromise between what we thought we could do in theory and what actually looked good in practice.

Because we would occasionally mess up our lines but kept the camera rolling we decided to add a 'blooper' or 'gag reel' to the end of our exercise which involved a clip of one of us messing up along with our names.

Editing was little harder as we had to get the voices in perfect sync and

we had many clips to sort through.

We enjoyed playing around with Soundtrack Pro and making the track perfect for the feel of our Match Cut.
