Bad Continuity - In-Camera Editing - Film School Newtown

(THIS VIDEO MAY NOT MAKE SENSE. Sorry - was an off-hand experiment that was probably only beneficial to the makers of the clip)

Natalie, Shane, Tyler and I created a really short, in-camera cut, movie which exercised what NOT to do in amateur film-making. We purposefully made lots of continuity errors - there's at least ten - see if you can spot them!

This was 'edited' purely in-camera (except for the slo-mo, haha) - so we only started/stopped the tape in sequence.
Was shot on a simple Panasonic 3CCD MiniDV video camera belonging to the school.

It was a lot of fun to make! :D

BTW: I understood what you were doing, and think it was a good exercise. Posting your school projects are a good idea!
