Continuity task

This is our completely finished and edited, in our group there was myself, Georgia, SamS, and Sam B.

I handled the camera using handheld and tri-pod techniques, using various zooms and angles. I also played a part in editing deciding how long each clip should be. Georgia was the director making sure the film was decent as well as Sam B and Sam S acting.

When we filmed we followed a script accompanied by a rough storyboard, which gave specific camera angles but did not determine location, which we later on decided on the day.
