conversation
we realized that we needed to stay stationary the whole time, and that we also needed to shoot all the scenes of one person at the same time. we followed the rule of thirds through the whole entire video by keeping our head on one part of the third grid. this creates an impression that the characters are having a conversation, and they actors are having a conversation so this worked really good. our dialogue seems like two people were actually talking during the video and we had almost no challenge with our videos because the acting was done well. our video's tone was kind of silly because we joked around and had funny expressions and a funny reaction shot. the observations we made were that the over the shoulder the shots really help create a dialogue effect. we learned how to edit the videos so that we can shoot one person the whole time and we can make it look like a talk between two people
