Creative Task 2 - Match on Action

This is our second creative task from a few weeks ago where we were told to focus on creating match on action shots for our sequence. 
Unfortunately we had to film our finished product on an iMac screen because some of the footage corrupted whilst uploading, so we couldn't upload directly to Youtube. We tried to keep the filming quite short and add around 4 or 5 match on action cuts so we could get to grips with the technique. 
In my opinion some of the shots and editing were very good towards the beginning, particularly the creative use of the first person perspective whilst walking (which took us several tries to get it done properly).
Towards the end however the continuity levels and overall seamlessness dropped a standard. For example the actors walking speed differed between multiple shots, making them look rather unnatural. Also in the second-to-last shot a car appears in the lower left section of screen out of nowhere which looks like a jump cut.

Learning Comment

This task has made me aware how match on action shots are used in filming to make scenes more interesting and enjoyable to watch for the audience. For example a regular action i.e. putting on a bag can be made more dramatic just by filming the same thing from several angles. I have also learned how to implement creative shots such as first person view. I've also learned to always check over all shots for any sudden-appearing objects or props such as the car in ours, which we would then need to re-film.
