Our scene showed an illegal trade of 'The Room' DVD with an added supernatural twist, we used several editing techniques to ensure that the scene flowed naturally and that a conversation was presented coherently. We showed majority of the conversation using an over the shoulder shot reverse shot while still adhering to the 180 degree rule.
I was pleased with how well our story was presented and how the joke of having one speaking actor came out in the end. I also liked how we cut together two separate pans at the end of the scene to create the illusion of a continuous shot.
3.What mistakes did you make? What would you have done differently?
When we originally shot the scene we didn't adhere to the 180 degree so we had to re-shoot the entire scene. Next time, to ensure this doesn't happen again I would pay more attention to the direction of the scene and the position of the camera.
4. How did you manage the group dynamics, equipment and resources?
Everyone in the scene took in multiple roles- I personally acted a body double, filmed several shots and assisted with the writing of the scene.
5. What problems did you encounter logistically?
We found that our original shooting location was impractical and unfitting for the theme of the scene, so we had to choose another location.
Ted Bundy--handsome, charming, and articulate--lured victims to their deaths with tricks such as crutches or a fake cast on his arm. He confessed to murdering thirty young women in seven states between 1974 and 1978, but his true number of victims is unknown. How could such a handsome and intelligent man be such a monster?
