Mask for clown

The clown mask cost £13.50 including postage, we are now going to have a look in charity shops to complete the costume and cut it up making the clown look more scary. The clown mask has black mesh to cover the eyes but we are also going to cover the clowns eyes in black make-up underneath so that with the lighting you can't see the normal eyes.

Preliminary task

For our preliminary task we were told to use the 180 rule, match on action and shot/reverse shot. The clip had to include someone walking through a door and having a conversation, we chose to do an interview scene where i walked in and answered questions. We used match on action when i walked through the door first shot of me holding the handle and the pushing it open. Shot/reverse shot was used during the dialogue scene between me and Kellie. The 180 rule was used throughout the clip we made sure to stick to that imaginary line we made.

The 180 rule is where you stick to a certain line on the floor and the camera does not move over that line during the clip. Every shot taken must be from behind that line. Match on action is where you have a long shot of someone reaching for somehting and then a close up of them either pushing the object or opening something for example a door. Shot/reverse shot is used in dialogue scenes where you focus on the person saying a line moving to each chartacter during the scene.

In our 2 minute film clip that we are making we will always make sure that we never go over the line and constanytly remember the 180 rule. We will use the shot/reverse shot during the dialogue scenes for example the scene witht the clown and Mark. Match on action will be used when Mark and Danielle kiss and when Dominic enters the kitchen.
