Learning the Basics

As a fight scene is something we haven't really touched upon since starting Media Studies, itis important my group and I know some of the basics just to make it a little bit easier while filming. This video is something that we all watched, and we did think it was beneficial:


I think the most important thing while filming is the camera angle in this scenario, as the camera shot itself will help push some of your points through and make it more appealing to the eye, but by being directly behind or in front of the contact will obstruct the viewer's eye from what is actually going on, so the hits will look real. Another thing is that there needs to be many cuts and the match on action needs to be done very well in the editing process. This is shown in a fight scene from the Bourne Supremacy involving Matt Damon. Another thing that I picked up on here was that there was a lot of camera shake, and this was to again make it harder for the viewer to see exactly what is going on, and to make everything look more realistic whilst adding a dramatic tone to it:
