Preliminary task

 This is the preliminary task we made. The main thing we had to achieve from it was continuity, meaning every scene had to continue at the exact same time from the last scene. This was especially hard with the scene where daniel enters the room. The first time we made it we found that at the end of the first entrance scene the door was still opening but it jumped to closing. We had to go over this to make it continue. Apart from this we have more or less achieved continuity.
 A big part of continuity was camera angles. There were 2 rules to follow on this: the 180 degree rule meaning we had to film all our angles from one side of the characters line of sight, if we broke this rule it would break the realism as both characters would be talking to each other  but looking the same way; the other was the 35 degree rule were every shot must be 35 degrees different from the last, otherwise it would look jumpy. We have managed to follow these rules
