180 Rule
We were focusing on the 180 degrees rule of filming when two characters are in a brief conversation. To make sure the film does not come out looking incorrect in terms of character positioning; you must stay on one side of both characters. As you can see in the picture above next to our video (with the 180 rule followed correctly) , if you go over the line we can see that both characters will look like they are both either sat or standing in the same position and orientation. This will create bad filming so the camera men/women must stay on one side. In order to make the filming more professional you should use the 180 degree rule especially in trailers when involving things such as a conversation. This will ensure that the two actors are facing each other in the film. We have two videos which demonstrates the difference between using the 180 degree rule and not using the 180 degree rule. As one video is two characters in a conversation using the rule and the other one without the rule. We did this so we can physically prove and demonstrate that we understand the rule and how it would make a difference to the filming and our title sequence.

WWW-What went well-
EBI-Even better if-
- We filmed all shots un under 50 minuets.
- kept a short and simple story line so the viewer can understand and not get confused.
- good choice of actors.
- did the 180 degree rule correctly.
EBI-Even better if-
- linked it to our genre of horror
