planning editing styles

Editing is a very important for film making as it can create effects on the audience. for intance is the pace is fast it create supence as everything is moving so fast the audience want to know what is going to happen next. On the other hand if the pace is slow it can have a very errir feel on the audience creating tension of what is going to happen. Here we see by the use of editing the audience prepection of what is going on in the scene can be controlled through editing which illustrates the importance. There are many different styles of editing some of which are bellow.


                                                  jump cut                                                   
fade
straight cut
kulveshov effect
 dissolve
timing of shots (slow or fast )
montage
fast cut
visual effect
eye line match
graphic match


In our opening scene we will use many jump cuts. A jump cut is a abrupt transition from one scene to another. This Will be  used this to speed up our opening scene and create a more intense opening. this can be seen when we switch from the killer to the decoy. The jump cut helps to increase the suspence between the women and the killer. it also helps to create an enigma which makes the opening scene more engaging.




 We will also use match on action, which is A cut which splices two different views of the same action together at the same moment in the movement, making it seem to continue uninterrupted. This technique will be used when we see the train goes past. my group will use match on action when tring to empliy there is a train journey was over a long period. we will use short shot scenes and images to create the feel of a long train journey. by using match on action it will create the effect that the train was a long journey


My group will also use the kulveshov effect. This is when two shots are put  together to apply a third meaning. For instance in the first shot their could be one man with blood poring out of him and the second shot a man running away. This evokes the feeling that the man running away has injured the man bleeding. My group will use this effect when the antagonist attracts the women we will no show the injection but the fainted and distort women being dragged away will imply the antagonist has inured the women. We will also use a very similar technique.

Montage -This is the reverse of slow editing in which shots are quickly joined together in order to create fast paced motion that provides the audience with excitement.


Dissolve- When an image is blended into another, the other disappears as the other one comes in.

Fade-When an edit fades from a scene into a black background or a black background fades into a scene.






My edditing styles will make my thriller film conventional because by using them effectively they will engage and suspend tyhe audience. This will make the film more successful as it has done its purpose of a thriller film. in addition the syles will create enigma to build tension in the film.
