Check this out! This is exactly why I don’t lift weights.

Claire gets even with Audrey.

These two characters appear in my first video “Instant video blogging”, and their soap opera continues…

So if you’re not sure where “Soap Opera #1″ is, then all you have to do is watch my first video “Instant video blogging”. These characters - Claire and Audrey show up for the first time in that video. So interesting -the comments that have come through on YouTube. I was corrected a number of times by people who say that the camera angles were wrong - since both characters are looking to the right. ooops hahaha I’ve been informed that I’ve violated the 180 degree rule regarding camera placement. Thanks to a YouTube user by the name of BlogCineDom who nicely explained it this way. “If you have two people facing each other (talking) the camera MUST STAY on *one side* of the LINE that extends from person A to person B. He included helpful diagrams so that we can all learn from my mistakes. That silly goof up -plus my tummy growling when I’m drinking the apple juice are extras that you just don’t get watching regular soap operas!! I should point out that I was spoofing the moments on soap operas when characters get upset about something - and they pour themselves a glass of scotch or some other amber colored spirits. Following that, there always has to be a moment - where the glass crashes because it’s either thrown out of anger (or in my case because I was drugged). Would I really drop the glass on the floor and let apple juice get everywhere? Of course not! That crash you hear is a sound effect. Then I laid down on the floor and kicked my foot up to give the impression as if I really did fall. Editing those scenes together was quite fun. By the way, I just checked the comments on YouTube again, and people are still debating if the characters are facing the wrong way or not. Since I have never taken a film or video class - I believe the experts that wrote in. But I am curious to hear from you… Did you find the way the characters were facing was distracting? The debate continues haha!
