More technicalities - continuity 2

When filming this piece there were some issues with casting, but since we never had alot of time we realised that bggers can't be choosers and used what or should I say who we had.

First the is a Long shot including the two main characters ,a transition was put in then a POV from the view of the third character -its a two shot of the first two main characters this POV althoguh seemingly insignificant it represents the closeness of the two main characters dispite their dispute and is seen by the eyes of a character who's sitting opposite them the audiencen in a sense is like this thrid character having a look into the conversation there but not quite as involved as the other two.
This contunuity was done in a room of lets say a cozy nature-very small space and it was a bit difficult for me as the camera woman to manuver the tripod around/ to get in many shots.
but I fel that when I wrote the cam movements in I did as many angles as I couuld with such a short time and limited story line.

I-movie was used to do all the editing, and there were alot of shots and takes used bu us being novist there were alot of rooky mistakes madeand this limited our end piece some what, but we in my opinion had rather good continuity in all though.
