We managed to complete most of our continuity task including the editing process. Firstly, importing the clips onto iMovie was a huge pain because we needed to get the three cameras that we used for filming but other groups kept having to use it for their continuity task so we had to wait a couple of weeks for them all to finish it.
The editing process proved to be fairly easy but it only totaled up to 1 minute 25 seconds after editing. We hope to film more shots for the continuity task to finalize it. There were some problems with the editing because there was a small stutter when the Interviewee opened the door but we will fix it ASAP. I really liked the build up and the suspense that leads up to the major rage in the interview. The use of silence during the build up added to the awkwardness when we watched it and the sudden outburst makes some people jump at first. The acting from Tyler is phenomenal and it's surprising how he can keep in character throughout without laughing. We had to cut away from Dan's face when Tyler did his tantrum because he couldn't keep it together but I think it works well because the camera should be focusing on the Interviewer at that point. iMovie (which was the editing program that we used) proved to be tedious and frustrating at times because it refused to do what we wanted like putting on a black and white filter whilst mirroring the shot. We may have broken the 180 degree rule in one shot of Dan sweating but it was unavoidable due to iMovie. We were also missing one of the angles that we were using for the match-on-action sequence therefore we could only use two of the angles which still looked good but I don't think it's a good match-on-action without three different camera shots. Unfortunately, the room in which we filmed our continuity task is a room that is occupied by another class. The reason why we were able to film there in the first place was because they weren't there for that one lesson. As a result we might have to hope that they aren't there when we film again or we will have to find another classroom which will risk continuity errors. We still need to film a couple of more shots for the rest of the continuity task and hopefully there won't be continuity errors.
