We used continuity editing to manipulate film time; therefore we only used pacific shots to reveal the narrative to the audience. We selected appropriete angles from each shot to establish the characters relationship and status. Once we had chosen the 'best fit' of shots, we added our selected shots to the Log Bin. We began to organise the order of our shots based on our storyboard. We needed to establish which side of the screen our characters were, so that the audience were not confused. We could then establish who was the more important character; therefore they got more privilished shots of close ups. We also used the Kuleshov effect to juxtapose shots to link the characters to each other or to other important objects relevant to the audience understanding the narrative. During the process, we had to make sure that the diegetic sound was smooth to destract the audience from flicking from shot to shot. We also made sure that we had match on action to prevent the film from becoming static or repeated, which would interupt the action and distract the audience. For our sequence, we did not need to use temporal discontinuity as the action was a narrative and took place in one destination in the same time zone. However we used cross-cutting to speed up film time which conveyed spatial discontinuity. We used this technique mainly to get a close up of the actors reaction to the other character's dialogue.
