Action shots

I watched this video which focuses on how to create a fight scene for a film. Although I am not having a massive fight sequence, I felt it would help if I researched how to create a fight sequence. This is because in my video, the girl loses her temper with her boyfriend at a party, and I want her to be violent to a certain extent because at that point in time she gains all of the power in the sequence, and leaves the boyfriend lower in power, for most of the video. Also because this is a music video and not a film, I have to show her getting angry without dialogue, so I want to emphasise her anger in her actions.

From this I picked up that a shaky camera will unease the audience, therefore emphasising the unease of the shot. I also learnt how to de construct  someone being thrown on the floor in to separate shots to create a realistic effect. Finally the video explained how to get the right camera angle to might pushes and punches look genuine, rather than fake.
