Thanks

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't realize the KZbinr had changed it to Private. I was able to find the same essay on another channel. Here's the link. I've also updated it in my video description. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4HWeJiErpuNoZofeature=shared

I agree. I enjoy dialogue scenes that employ a combination of camera and actor movement to create a more visually interesting scene than two people who are just locked down and talking to one another.

I can understand how shot-reverse-shot can feel overdone. However, one of the positives of it is you can see more of the actors/actresses face (specifically the eyes) than you would in a two shot. A two shot typically restricts you to half the face thus half the emotion.

Perhaps they don’t think it’s edgy and modern. Simply that it’s the best way to tell that particular story. The two shot can be used in conjunction with the reverse shot..look at the diner scene in Pulp Fiction. Best of both worlds. Drives narrative. Sets up story. And develops characters while using both techniques

Appreciate it. Glad you found it helpful

Awesome. Let me know if you or your students have any other questions or any other topics I should cover

Are you looking specifically for a film crew to help tell your story?

Thanks. Let me know if there is any other topic you think I should cover

Hey Katherine, I'm glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for watching.

Getting a reverse shot on set requires a secondary camera and lighting setup. So, for example, you would first setup your shot for Actor #1 and run through the scene. Then you will need to move the camera and lighting to set up a shot for Actor #2 to capture his/her dialogue. While editing, you can simply cut between the two angles, finding the best takes and the best reactions from each actor.
