Description of our ideas for the task

180 Degree rule
We intend to include the 180 degree rule with ease. We have looked and planned where we are going to film and each place visited we thought and concluded if we could fit the 180 degree rule in. With simple yet useful planning this should not be hard to do in our filming.

Shot reverse shot
Getting the perfect shot reverse shot in is slightly harder and more complex than the 180 degree rule. To make sure it runs smoothly during our editing and to ensure the final cut looks good, we decided to use two cameras to focus on both characters face's so we can film it just once and have it the same.

Match on action
Match on action is most certainly the hardest requirement to include. The match on action requirement was to have a character walk through the door on one side and have the camera show them exiting through the other. We will do this twice in our production at two separate doors to double check that we actually hit the requirement needed.  We also chose the doors carefully in our planning to make this as easy as possible due to the space required. For one of the match on actions we filmed from each side of the door at once. However, if we use both cameras at once we risk showing the camerawoman on the other side. The second time we filmed this shot we had the camerawoman to the side of the door so we could do it in one go and didn't risk showing the camerawoman on film.

The other requirements needed for the preliminary task is a character sitting at a table and several lines of dialogue. Now this is simple and easy to do. However, we want our piece not to be boring and energetic most the time so our character is only at the table for several seconds so we can keep the pace going.
