We utilized iMovie to edit our previous camerawork, as well as adding some new shots. We imported the footage with a firewire cable and edited it to make chronological sense.

In this screenshot you can see that the 180 degree rule is established.

In the next shot the 180 degree rule is maintained.

We learned how to set a camera and tripod and record a sequence-using match on match action. We also learned about the 180-degree rule and how not to break it, why it is used and important etc. We also learned what shot reverse shot is and how and why it is used. A storyboard was drawn and used to its full potential. We included dialogue. Next we are going to practice continuity editing.
