Analysis of continuity task

The first shot of the video is a close up, which is also a eyeline match shot with the cigarette stuff. The lighting could have been better in this shot, as the exposure wasn't quite right.

The next shot is another close up of the cigarette stuff, matching the last shots eyeline. This shot is focused on the lighter but I think it would have been better if it was focused on the pouch of tobacco.

The shot next was an over the shoulder shot of the guy looking at the tobacco, this shot wasn't great because the camera isn't focused very well and the camera should be higher so more is visible. This shot is also a match on action to the next shot.

The next shot is a medium shot of the guy reaching for the tobacco. this shot actually breaks the 80 degree rules, which breaks continuity.

The next shot is an over the shoulder shot, which was shot better than the last over the shoulder shot, this one is higher, which means you can actually see what he's doing.

Next it cross cuts to a long shot of someone walking down the corridor. The cross cut suggests simultaneity. This shot could have been more in focus, we tried to focus on the man but because they were moving it was difficult.

 It cuts back to the guy rolling a cigarette, which is part of the cross cut, which suggests the man in the  corridor is walking at the sometime as the guy is rolling a cigarette. For this shot we should have 4used a tripod because the camera movement is a bit shaky. This shot is also a bit too long, it feels like it drags on a bit.

the next shot cuts back the an in the corridor coming up to the door. Again we had a bit of a problem focusing this shot because the main subject was moving. This is also a long shot because all of the subjects body is in the shot.

the next shot is a match on action of him opening the door. The shot changes just as he goes to open the door handle. There is also quickly another match on action of him opening the door. As he opens the door it cuts to a shot of inside the room he's coming into.

the next shot is a long/ establishing shot, typically an establishing shot would be at the start of a video to establish where everything. Although  We decided not to have one at the start of our video because we didn't think it was necessary. Although this shot establishes where the door is relative to the guy rolling the cigarette. The focus is a bit off in this shot because it was difficult to find a shot to focus on and be able to have both subjects in focus.

the next shot is the start of a shot reverse shot sequence. This shot positions the guy at the right of the screen looking off to the left, where the next shot the man is on the left side of the screen looking off right. This suggests they're looking at each other. I like how these shots look because there isn't any confusion about where either of them are facing.

The final shot goes back to a wide shot showing where they are relative to each other, to make sure there isn't any confusion about where they are standing, again we had some issues correctly focusing this shot. Typically it would fade out can have a credit sequence, we left this out because of time retrains. the same of the a title card and a fade up, we would have added it but we just didn't have enough time.
