Continuity Sequence

Batman vs John Gotti

We decided to change our idea to a British gangster fighting batman for our continuity sequence because max could easily show of his editing skills and hard couldn't act because he wasn't in therefore I had to play the role of batman which i thoroughly enjoyed. I was still directing the film and in change of the cinematography but I wasn't actually filming it as I was acting, instead I just told max what shots to use. We followed the 180 degree rule, shot reverse shot and we had dialogue within our continuity sequence which me and George scripted.

Due to the file being too large to upload of this website, we had to upload it to youtube in order for it to be viewed, this is the link.

Original Continuity Sequence Idea

In todays lesson we began to draft our groups idea for the continuity sequence we will make on the following Monday. Our idea was to have George Kelly play the role as George Kray, a 1920s British Gangster who will eventually "whack" Johnny Smith, a lower ranked gangster played by Harry LJ because he lost Krays money betting on horses. We used a storyboard to plan the shots we are going to use and me and george are planning to start scripting in a free period however we think it would be best if we scripted the sequence as a group. Harry LJ and Max were giving some brilliant ideas we could use for the sequence and as a group we decided what would work best too create more meaning within our sequence. We are going to either use a classroom thats blacked out or the drama studio to film in.
