This past week in Independent Study and Mentorship I read over an article about editing in film and how that can affect the perception of the movie to its viewers. The editing of a film is often neglected and misinterpreted by its audience, despite its importance. The film's evolution can be influenced by the editor's rhythm and tempo. The pace of the edits do not have to be consistent throughout the film; nonetheless, the proper cut of the appropriate shot may always serve to connect the audience with the tale. Editors need to be aware of how much time they should allow their viewers to comprehend the gist of what's going on. Editors need to allow the audience to have time to adjust to the story's pacing and tone. By using the correct number of ups and downs, carefully edited, may assist in setting the tone. A "transition" can be described as the way two video shots are linked together in video and filmmaking language. The first thing to realize about transitions is that they should never be misused or overused, just as using too many slide transitions in a PowerPoint presentation is deemed unprofessional. Effective transitions, on the other hand, bridge diverse video shots together to provide a better message or story flow when done professionally.
This next week in Independent Study and Mentorship I hope to get another interview with a professional and find a studio to start filming my Original Work Project.
