Question by Utopia: When filming a Movie how are the shots filmed, please read on?
Do you film the whole shot in on non stop sequence with two or more cameras for different angels and then edit or do you film each small piece,cut and change camera positions. Example you have two actors facing each other and they each have a script. After the first actor says their pasrt do you cut and reposition the camera on the other actor and film? Do you do this back and forth?
Or do you have one camera on one actor and another camera on the other actor both filming at the same time and then do the cuts in editing?
Please giver your expert advise as I am learning movie making and I am not in film school yet, however I am trying to grasp the concept. Thank You for your detailed answers and help- Blessings
