Combining shots into sequences

Combining shots into a sequence is simple although could be challenging. The term is as simple as it sounds and explains itself however some scenes using this technique could take days to record and place in the right position. The whole idea of the video is for the scene to continue whilst changing angles so that it flows smoothly, smooth enough for the audience not to notice.

This is often used in fight scenes such as the one in the example below.


The angle changes a lot at the start of the scene focusing on each different person that is in the scene and then back to the main character. However when the final fight breaks off the angle stays the same and the rest of the fight happens in one clip.
