continuity exercise - what's it all about man?

Yo tis been a long time since the great me has posted anything so I have many things to update on.

Hola mi gente!!

Starting with the continuity exercise then.

Each group had to obey the 180 degree rule - a rule which states that a camera should be placed somewhere inside 180 degrees on a particular side of an 'invisible line' of a shot containing two people filmed in sequence - and insert a use of a match-on action.


Picture illustrating it


The story of this very short film is as follows:

Myself and Eve are in a mad asylum of some kind. She is a crazy person and I was an analysist dude or doctor or someone of that kind taking notes. Anyway, we are both sat opposite each other and here is a script which is pretty much what happens (may be some difference in what we actually said):

EVE: The elephants flew out of the window over there.
OSCAR: (sarcastically) Yes of course, I saw them the other week.
EVE: (getting angry) Are you patronising me?
OSCAR: No. *gives her random puffy toy to calm her down*
OSCAR: Look, there's one now
EVE: Are you sure?
OSCAR: Yes..
EVE: *gets up, screams loudly and runs off*

Yer it's plain whack but you know, whatever! The simple handing of the toy will be the match-on action.
