I found two examples of matched action in this video from Spokesmanreview.com. I think it's a pretty good video outlining the process of restocking a lake in Washington with more fish. The video is narrated by the photographer at the beginning. Dave Welton, an employee of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, narrates the remainder.
I found two matched actions: 0:27-0:32 and 0:44-0:56.
The first involves two different views of Welton attaching a long pipe to his truck: a long view and then a close up. I'm not possitive, but I think the close up is more than just a zoomed in view: it appears to be shot at a slightly different angle than the long view. Though this is a rather simple example, I thought it worked out well sequentially.
The second involves Welton making some adjustments on the top of his truck: two different views of him walking on the top of the truck and then a close up of the actual adjustments. This is a stronger example of matched action. It is more clear in this example that the three different views given are actually from different view points. I think you'll see what I mean...
Overall, I thought the video was quite interesting. I wasn't crazy about how the photographer narrated the piece at the beginning--his tone of voice doesn't really go along with the tone of the rest of the piece...but at least gives the viewer all of the background information needed. The rest of the piece was edited well.
