When
you think of editing, you normally think of a viriety of all these cool different choices, however
there are key principles that make up editing as a whole, and these are:
·
Contnuity:
Continuity editing
can be divided into two categories: temporal
continuity and spatial continuity.
Within each category, specific techniques will work against a sense of
continuity. In other words, techniques can cause a passage to be continuous,
giving the viewer a concrete physical narration to follow or causing viewer
disorientation, pondering, or even subliminal interpretation or reaction, as in
the montage style. So basically (for those that didn’t understand) continuity
editing is used to stabalize a video. It’s what sticks the video together and
goves it a flow.
·
Montage:
Montage is a technique in which a series of short
shots are edited into a sequence to condense space, time, and information. The
montage sequence is usually used to suggest the passage of time, rather than to
create symbolic meaning.
·
Jump-Cutting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpDNmRcrJBc
A jump cut is a cut in film editing in which two
sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions that vary
only slightly. This type of edit gives the effect of jumping forwards in time.
It is a manipulation of temporal space using the duration of a single shot, and
fracturing the duration to move the audience ahead.
·
Parallel Editng: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_I82117oAw
Parallel
editing is where the editor crosses between two different shots which is also
known as cross cutting. The idea of parallel editing is to build up suspension
so when the audeine’s watching the film it portrys the idea that something is
going to happen at the same time as something else. It’s a great way of
building up tension

180 Degrees Rule: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN6TPtaBKwk
The 180-degree rule is
a basic guideline regarding the on-screen spatial relationship between a
character and another character or object within a scene. An imaginary line
called the axis connects
the characters, and by keeping the camera on one side of this axis for every
shot in the scene, the first character is always frame right of the second
character, who is then always frame left of the first.
·
Transitions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozc9a8QXfSQ
Transitions are
used in edit to link the different shots together; this is done in post
production of film editing. The different transitions used depend on how the
director wants them.The different transitions are: Fade to Black, Dissolve,
Fades, The Iris & Cut.
·
Editing Rhythm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MExM2ZW9h3o
Rhthmic Editing
manipulates the length of a series of shots. However it is varied, different
effects can be achieved or enhanced.
·
Crosscutting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmptU7vEkNU
Cross-cutting is
a technique which conveys spatial discontinuity. It can be achieved by cutting
back and forth between shots of spatially unrelated places. In these cases, the
viewer will understand clearly that the places are supposed to be separate and
parallel. So in that sense, the viewer may not become particularly disoriented,
but under the principle of spatial continuity editing, crosscutting is
considered a technique of spatial discontinuity.
·
Cutting To Soundtrack:

Cutting to
soundtrack editing is when the pace and beat of a song can determine how fast
scenes can cut. This is a great way to captivate an audience’s attention cause
it’s out of the ordinary.
