Over The Shoulder Exercise

We chose to use a medium long shot at the very beggining when the students shake hands and then we only used over the shoulder shots since that's what the exercise was about.I think that we followed the rule of thirds just fine. It looks better when one follows the rule of thirds.When following the rule of thirds, you the image from a character's perspective and it makes one feel like if one was really there.The challenges we had during editing with the dialog was that the actors sometimes said their lines too fast or the were not looking where they were supposed to.The mood of our video is a little serious and unrealistic because the actors did not know their lines and had to be looking down to read the script. I learned that we have to prepare our shots better and organize things better in order to make good videos.
