in todays lesson, we learnt Alto about how only 6 camera locations, can give a wide variety of shots, we also looked into moving between shots, how you shouldn't move, even slightly, between your two shots, (try to get them both identical) Our group also filmed a scene, @Person 1: Are you going to tell? Person 2: I don't know@ in that scene we recorded the same dialogue 4 times, at different angles, editing them together to look like one action, it was rather smooth but we did notice it was over exposed, We also looked at other peoples work on that line of dialogue, one group when filming had one of the actors scratch her left cheek with her left hand, then when the camera angle changed, she was scratching her right cheek with her right hand. We also looked over some previous work from a few years ago. The story of the clip, was that somebody stole a candy bar from a shop, and made a run for it, a bystander began pursuit, and at the end he caught the thief, lifting up the bar that reads "Double", it then captions the image with a phrase from the company that made the bar, we where told to make a short chase scene, i was filming during that scene, we had positioned the camera on a nearby stage, looking down at where they would be running through from, as they ran through i panned the camera following them, slowly zooming in. we then took another shot of the door from the inside, so when they ran past the stage we could catch them flying through the door, I also took a little extra shot from ground level, looking up at them as they ran past.

Now towards editing,

 when we where editing the scene @Are you going to tell?@ We noticed how the voices where out of sink, so we unlinked the text and audio, and started to fiddle with the location of the audio along the timeline, trying to sink the audio with the lips of the two actors, we know that if we sink the audio of the first actor, the second would fall into place without any work needing to be done to it, after the editing we rendered the clip into a ".Mov" format, playable in apple's "Quick time" media program. we are yet to edit the second recording, but we plan to jump into it Asap next week, OR Jonathan will do it now.

I personally think the day turned out pretty well, we didn't hit any issues other than the ones listed above, I cant realy think of anything else to list other than this, i will be attaching images in there rightful locations as soon as i can transfer the files from my phone to my home computer.
