This week we introduced the class to a simple method for shooting sequences on a single camera. The entire scene is the first filmed in a wide shot, then played out again in a few mid shots and finally whatever close-ups that would help tell the store and to be used as cut always. With the camera still running the whole scene was shot. even if most of it is out of shot. This technique ensures that the action flows together nicely in the edit, will not have any story gaps, has good continuity and also gives the editors more options.
