O.T.S.
We just set up the camera for a over the shoulder shot. We had to set up where each person was going to stand and make sure they dont move from that spot so the shot doesmt get messed up. I dont think that we followed the rule of thirds. I was the camera person and I totally forgot the rule of thirds. It was pretty close it think but it was not in the cross sections needed to make it a rule of thirds shot. Over the shoulder shots put the focus on one person willing showing that they are having a conversation with someone. It shows that two people are exchanging dialogue. It is wierd dialogue to start out with. But the transaction of dialogue between the two seemed pretty realastic. The editing wasnt to hard because my group did a good job of giving enough time before and after there dialogue so the editing was easy. I dont therewas really a dominant tone or mood in our video. Camera positioning is very important to get the right shot. The postioning of the actors and to make sure that when you shoot over the left shoulder of one person you are shotting over the opposite on the other.
