Continuity exercise
Our film starts off with a following shot of Matt, playing football doing various skills such as a stopover. He then beats the defender, however, the defender, me, gets a bit rowdy that he has been dribbled past. The defender takes down the player with the ball and gives away a free kick. We then get a slow motion shot of of the defender taking the player with the ball down. This allows the viewer to reflect on how severe the tackle was.
We then did a hard cut to a POV shot of the player putting down the ball on the ground for a free kick. This immerses the viewer and makes them feel like they are the character taking the free kick. We then hard cut to a over-the-shoulder shot of the player taking the free kick, giving us a overview of the goal. In the cut the defender is trying to make a wall to block the ball from going in, with the keeper directing him where to go. We then hard cut to a shot of the ball, slowly panning up towards the free-kick takers face, where he is nobly looking towards the goal, as if he aims to shoot the ball into the goal. We then hard cut to a pan shot around the players face where he is looking towards the goal. This then cuts to a following shot of the players leg, running towards the football, then proceeding to kick it. We then get a POV shot of the football going into the goal then dropping to the floor. During this POV shot we see a shot of my face looking as the ball flies past my face and a shot of ben Richardson diving towards the ball attempting to stop it going into the goal.
CONTINUITY EXERCISE: Excellent work: you have planned this carefully to include a wide variety of shot types, then edited together visually in a way that creates a coherent narrative. One of the most convincing aspects is the use of the soundtrack and the ways in which the editing supports what is said. Well done!
