STEPH
[Plainly]
This is my pen.

ADAM shuffles into the view of the camera. He looks down at STEPHS pen and back to the camera.

ADAM
[Flatly]
I like your pen.

STEPH drops the pen.

STEPH
[No emotion]
Oops, I dropped my pen.

ADAM looks down to the floor and back at the camera.

ADAM
I will get your pen for you.

ADAM bends down to retrieve the pen. He stands back up and hands STEPH the pen.

STEPH
Thank you for my pen.

STEPH removes the cap from the pen before ADAM turn to leave. Camera cuts to ADAM lifting up mug in exaggerated fashion. ADAM slowly walks out of the room. STEPH goes crazy with the white board.

ADAM walks out of the door where TAHLER is stood. ADAM stands next to TAHLER holding the mug up. TAHLER looks at ADAMS mug.

TAHLER
[Blandly]
Nice mug.

ADAM
Thanks.

Evaluation


During our short film we used various types of shots to capture different meanings. The shot we used most was a master, 2 shot which was suitable as we had many conversations throughout the piece and enabled us to see both actors on scene , it also gives the audience a general feel of the mise en scene and diegetic world our story was set in. We incorporated an establishing of the scene which panned to the left following Adam out of room and then to the right. This allowed us to show the audience the environment and enhance the idea of a dull, inanimate atmosphere which is reflective of our robotic characters. Inserts shots allowed us to connote relevant and important aspects of the narrative and gave the audience an insight into how the film will unravel, we used this when the pen was purposely dropped onto the floor it also contributed to the general flow and allowed action matching to take place. We also used action matching during opening a door followed by a new take with the actor on the other side
