The document discusses various elements of film editing that can be analyzed, including: order of shots, continuity, transitions, shot duration/pace and rhythm, and special effects. It explains how these technical elements help create meaning and influence what information is revealed or hidden from the characters and audience. Order of shots can reveal character perspectives and importance. Continuity editing implies spatial relationships to tell a story smoothly. Transitions can imply passage of time or location changes. Shot duration impacts pace, while special effects further manipulate scenes.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. What are we looking for when
analysing editing in a clip?
Task 1:
• Write down as many elementsthat you can
think of that may come under editing (2 mins.)
3. What are we looking for when
analysing editing in a clip?
• Order of shots/shot choices
• Continuity You need to be
• Transitions able to discuss
how these
• Shot duration technical
elements help
• Pace and rhythm create meaning.
• Special effects
4. Order of shots
• The meaning of a clip can change depending
on the order the shots are cut together
• Hitchcock Loves Bikinis

• Putting two shots together can suggest a
connection or emphasise contrast
(juxtaposition).
5. Order of shots
The order of shots can reveal who motivates the edit.
• Which character’s perspective is privileged? For
example, who do we start or end with or cut to most
often in a conversation/scene? Who do we see eyeline
matches for, etc.
• Screen time is also part of this – which character do we
see most, or which character do we see the
perspective of most, i.e. point of view shots.
• This tells us which characters are most important in a
scene or at a particular point in the narrative.
6. Continuity
Continuity editing:
• Cutting shots to tell a story with narrative continuity
• Helping the viewer make sense of the action by
implying spatial relationships and ensuring smooth
flow from shot to shot.
• Creates realism- edit is invisible so action appears
real rather than constructed.
7. Continuity
Continuity techniques:
• Establishing shot (establishes the space in which
action is to happen)
• The 180º rule (ensures that the same space is
described in each shot)
• Shot/reverse shot
• Eyeline match (e.g. character looks off-screen, next
shot shows us what they see)
• Match on action (character begins to move in one
shot, we see continuation of the same movement in
the next shot)
8. Non-Continuity
• Montage – giving information in compressed
form – can come under…
• Non-continuity editing – Continuity is broken
and construction is more apparent. Meaning
often created through juxtaposition and
metaphor shot inserts.
• For example, the Six Feet Under opening.
9. Transitions
• The process of cutting from one shot to another usually
involves a simple straight cut. However there are other
means of transition available to a film editor such as,
• Fade to black
• Dissolve/cross fade
• Wipe
Click here for more detail on transitions
10. Fade – the preceding shot fades into black from which the following
shot emerges.
11. Fade – the preceding shot fades into black from which the following
shot emerges.
12. Fade – the preceding shot fades into black from which the following
shot emerges.
13. Dissolve or cross fade – the preceding shot merges into the following
shot, resulting in the two shots being superimposed. The longer the
dissolve the more noticeable the superimposition becomes.
14. Dissolve or cross fade – the preceding shot merges into the following
shot, resulting in the two shots being superimposed. The longer the
dissolve the more noticeable the superimposition becomes.
15. Dissolve or cross fade – the preceding shot merges into the following shot,
resulting in the two shots being superimposed. The longer the dissolve the
more noticeable the superimposition becomes.
17. Transitions
As well as simply moving to another shot,
transitions can:
• imply a passage of time
• imply a change in location
• emphasise a connection, perhaps what a
character is thinking, remembering or dreaming
about (dissolve/cross fade).

18. Shot Duration/Pace & Rhythm
• The duration of a shot will usually reflect the
narrative context.
• Generally speaking short shot duration conveys
action and urgency (say in a chase sequence). Click
here for a chase sequence from Die Another Day. See
if you can count the number of shots!
• Long shot duration creates a slower pace and
conveys intensity and intimacy within the narrative,
it allows us to focus upon facial expression and other
aspects of mise en scene which would otherwise be
missed.
19. Special Effects
• Special effects can be used to further
manipulate the mise en scene of a sequence.
• Arlington Road example
20. Editing controls what information
we get and when we get it
When analysing a clip it is also useful to consider how editing
techniques are used to control what information is revealed to
or hidden from:
a) the characters?
b) the audience?
If you as the audience know more than the character(s) then it can
help provoke an emotional reaction. For example, a film may be
cross cutting between shots of a character and shots that suggest
impending danger. The character does not see this but the
audience do and so may feel anxiety or tension in anticipation of
something horrible happening – the element of suspense is being
built up for the audience.
21. More editing devices & terminology
• Ellipses
• Parallel Editing:cross cutting or intercutting between different
locations can convey the impression that two or more events are occurring
simultaneously. This is often used to build tension.
• Split screen: where the frame is split into sections so that we can
see different events occurring at the same time. This technique was used
on the TV series 24 and also the Thriller openingMesrine: Killer Instinct.
