and you are thinking of not filming for

your final task?

There are a few conventions of this film that I might not use for my film.  For example bird's eye view is a a type of shot I wouldn't use because it would be hard for me to film. Also, three shot would be another type of shot I wouldn't use because of inconvenience. High angle is another one I wouldn't use because I wouldn't know where to place the camera.
