Exploring the long take in filmmaking

A scene from The Offence - exploring the long take - I have chosen to shoot this scene in one long take, with no edits: exploring the use of the long take in filmmaking.

Thanks Beano214. I'm glad you liked it.

The pillar was just so we could try and make it more violent and at the same time frustrating for the audience.

But I'd agree that there could of been less of it.

Thanks again.

Rob, I do like the concept of shooting from behind the pillar . When I first saw it I was reminded of an Ep of The Street which was directed by Terry McDonough, the closing scene was filmed through a door which was held open by the chain and was shot on a two way, giving the viewer the perspective of the two characters. My point here Rob is they both have one thing in common in that they are Brave and refreshingly different

This is really good, your actors are excellent and your long take really works, i just wish you hadn't shot behind the pillar so much otherwise 10/10 very well done
