Document Summary
Introduction to editing: editing= putting one shot with another. Old fashioned editing= linear editing gluing together pieces of film strips, so must go in order: non-linear editing system= modern method. Take different shots and use the computer to put them together: shot transition types transition between editing clips: Fadeout/in used to signify a passage of time: dimensions of film editing: Builds narrative suspense: rhythmic editing: shots joined together to exploit duration and tempo relationships feeling of pacing. Controls attention and intensity of scenes: kuleshov effect: Named after 1920s-30s soviet filmmaker lev kuleshov worked on conceptual points in editing. Refers to the idea that spectators will infer a spatial whole upon only seeing portions of a space edited together. The effect is also frequently interpreted to mean that each shot gains meaning from its relationship to adjacent shots (manipulation of space)
