The preliminary task was the first filming assignment in the student's AS media course. To complete the task, students had to learn about different camera angles and filming rules. The student's group used a match on action cut between shots of the student walking through a door from different perspectives to show continuity. They followed the 180 degree rule by keeping the camera on one side of an imaginary line between characters. Shot/reverse shot technique was also explained, showing characters looking at each other during a conversation.
