Why Is Editing And Why The Medium Of Film Need Editing?

A variety of camera techniques are used throughout the beginning sequence to enhance the mood and involve the audience. Camera techniques are harmonized with lighting effects to culminate this dramatic scene. I will begin by discussing examples of this. In the village, many close-ups and long shots are used to enhance facial expression and to set the sombre mood.

Per Reporter: On September 1, 2017, Kendra and Marcus (victim’s father) took off without making transportation arrangements for Danielle Rushing (victim). School is dismissed at 2:45pm; No one picked Danielle up from school. Kendra or Marcus did not communicate with the school officials of who would pick Danielle up or how she would return home.

An attempt to contact the numbers listed for Danielle was unsuccessful; however, Liz was able to speak with Leo Mayes, who stated that he was not aware of who Danielle was. At 4:45pm, Liz and Danielle went to the police. A deputy went out to the family’s home, but no one was there. Mr. Mitchell (Sargent) found contact information for Rita (grandmother). Rita

The editing, use of frame and shot sizes in this sequence clearly establish the idea that every part of the aesthetics in Geman Expressionist films are important. This movement of film borrows some conventions from the films of the United States at this time, they use continuity editing to establish a clearly defined narrative. Similarily, the camerawork is “typically functional rather than spectacular”. This continuity style of editing emphasises the importance of story in this sequence, first the audience is shown a murder followed by the subsequent reaction, the narrative is clear cut and establishes the intended horror, common in German Exprassionist films. The camera work coupled with the editing style in this sequence highlight the other elements of the sequence including set, actors and lighting as well as emphasising the horror of the narrative to ensure that the audience is drawn into the terryfying world of Dr. Calligari. The realative normality of the editing and camerawork is used to highlight the unreality of the other visuals thus each technique is coordinated creating what Rotho would term “studio constructivism and a sense of completeness” that was produced across German Expressionist films (Kracauer 194). However, camera and editing can be and is used in this case both naturally and unaturally to create more horror. During the murder, the camera remains still and at eye-level but the victim is placed at the bottom of the frame to make him appear small and

The poem Suicide Note, written by Janice Mirikitani (1987), talks about a young lady, who has studied in an Asian-American female college. The lady, unfortunately, committed suicide by jumping through her dormitory’s window. She left behind a note, citing reasons that led to her actions. After a critical analysis of the note, her parents were held responsible for her actions; they were pressurizing her to perform better in her exams. The poem, thus, describes the real feelings and the emotions of this young lady, who believes that committing suicide is the only option left to please her parents and to escape the enormous pressure placed on her. The persona uses voice in the poem to bring our attention to the sufferings she was going through, and that led to the devastating event. Voice in poetry is the strong words of a line, stanza or a page that creates a relationship between the audience and the persona. Voice can, therefore, be categorized as imagery, patterns of sounds created, rhythm, tone, and diction (Gahern 166). The following is a description of how the voice in Mirikitani’s suicide note helps the reader understand the persona’s reasoning.

Hi readers, for this weeks blog I will be talking about a book I got recommended by Mrs. Monaghan. The book is called Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. The main character Melinda Sordino is an outcast at her school. Everyday Melinda gets tormented by her ex best friend and the other students at the school. Her old best friend won’t talk to her and ignores her and the other kids glare at her. She’s very and shy and doesn't really speak much which is funny considering the title is called speak. So far I am really liking the concept of the book.

Ashley told Billy that she loves her first grade class. She explained to Billy that she learned to count by 5 and 10. Also she is able to read books to herself. She cannot wait to read the princess book series that Billy bought for her. School and social interaction play an important role during this time of a child’s life. Through social interactions, children begin to develop a sense of pride in their accomplishments and abilities.

There was a girl who was teased, mocked and the garage can for them. The girl wanted to speak up for herself, but she didn't know how. Until one day, she broke out of her shell and she is still known today. In this paper, I want to to tell you why I want to learn to speak up, then do it and then inform you how I did it.

“I have never spoken one single word. I am almost eleven years old,” (2). Melody, the main character, is disabled with cerebral palsy. She can’t walk or talk, and she can’t write. It sucks, but she is very intelligent, and probably has a photographic memory. Melody is very different from the rest of the world, because she is disabled, is kind of crazy, but really kind and smart, and a lot of fifth graders aren’t.

Editing is one of the most important parts of filmmaking. Film Editing is one of my favorite things to do. But let’s get to the point. I have recently graduated from a recognized film school and I just created a short film that goes viral. I am anxious for a TV/ film production company to see my produced video. Or if that doesn’t work you make ads to get your name out there for local job openings, or recruitments. Well no one’s interested in an award winning filmmaker! A production company with standards is not going to consider a student who just graduated from a film school. A degree in law, master’s or engineering degree all are bait for finding a job easily. Sure I may know how to block a scene, move a dolly, edit, correct colors and mix

The various camera shots and angles used in the scene are able to transmit to the audience a sense of humour and amusement.

I looked at Mr. Dressler and I realized by the sadness in his eyes that he pitied me. He saw a girl whose parents didn’t care much about her. A girl who was alone in a strange city, without a single friend. He replied with a new hopeful energy in his voice, “Why don’t we stop for a bit of ice cream and a little drive through tour of the city, that way you won’t be completely discombobulated in this big

The main theory I want to utilize is that of D. W. Griffith’s “Dramatic Construction”. D. W. Griffith in its modern sense is the acknowledged father of film editing (Dancyger, 2001:5). When it comes to full range of dramatic construction: the variation of shots for impact, including the extreme long shot, the close-up, the cutaway, and the tracking shot; parallel editing; and variations in pace his contributions cover all of these (Dancyger, 2001:5). Griffith learned how to make the juxtaposition of shots have a far greater dramatic impact than his predecessor (Dancyger, 2001:5). Griffith experimented with the fragmentation of scenes. His goal was to enhance his audience’s emotional involvement with his films (Dancyger, 2001:5). I would like to use this theory because when dealing with our films concept. I want the audience to be emotionally involved with Andy and Jess throughout their journey in the film. To achieve this I will

In the filmmaking world, the different uses of cinematography are endless. In many cases, a director’s editing techniques and narrative are so distinct that one might differentiate the film’s director just by examining its cinematic language. For example, Steven Spielberg uses signature works in many of his films that allow viewers to categorize them as his own. Spielberg, a famous Hollywood style director, was born in Ohio. He kicked off his Hollywood career after directing his low budget films Firelight and Amblin’. After he signed his contract with Universal Studios, the director went on to film record-breaking movies. A few of Spielberg’s movies include Jaws, Jurassic Park, and E.T. The Extra Terrestrial. These films share some of this iconic filmmaker’s trademarks such as the long take, character expressions, and the reoccurring theme of family.

The Sound of a Voice explores the many failed attempts by two characters to overcome their doubts and fears that they have for each other when they first meet for a brief time. As a few weeks pass by, the two become quite familiar with each other, but yet they still treat each other with their own personal suspicions. The man has a fear that he will become emotionally mixed up and the woman believes that the man will leave her like many of the other men in the past that came to her only to leave once again isolated in the woods. Both of the characters have rooted their suspicions in very customary views of what women and men are supposed to be like, and it is these embedded views that avert them from establishing the intimacy that both of them crave and long for.
