Reflection
1) Our group didn’t do a lot of planning we followed the script most of the time. Before we started shooting we planned what shots would be on what line and how we should convey it to the camera.
2) Yes I believe we did. The shot where you first see Ashley is a perfect example Taylor did a great job of following the rule of thirds in the over the shoulder shots.
3) The impression of the O.T.S is that you see the characters face and you see the emotion on them to convey maybe an unspoken truth like the reaction shot .
4) The dialogue itself seemed un natural to me personally. There wasn’t a lot of challenges that we faced when editing because of the way we filmed it we didn’t have to edit a whole lot just arrange in the proper order.
5) I didn’t hear or see a dominant mood in the video it just seemed simple and plane. Ashley and I just said the words with minimum emotion I guess you could say
6) I really like the over the shoulder shots and but I think you should use it in moderation so your shots don’t become repetitive.
7) Other ideas were emphasized by the over the shoulder by getting the shot in the rule of thirds and good lighting.
