This document discusses editing techniques used in movie trailers. It explains that trailers typically start at a normal pace to establish calm before increasing tension. Dissolve transitions show the passage of time between creepy title screens. As tension rises, fast cuts create mystery and flashbacks provide context. The climax is both fast-paced and intense before slowing down for the final scare. Editing can show originality by reordering footage or speeding it up. Pace increases engagement but slowing down at the climax heightens suspense. Genres like horror employ fast cuts and effects while drama maintains a medium pace. Proper editing complements the plot, atmosphere, and characters' feelings. Well-timed titles and dissolves

Textual analysis point break
The chase scene in Point Break is considered one of the best in movie history. It features two characters chased through various environments using different shots and camera techniques to build tension. There are many quick cuts, close-ups, tracking shots, and the use of props and a loud instrumental score to create an intense, hectic tone. Elements like this intense chase scene show the antagonistic relationship between characters and effectively set the tone for the rest of the film by appealing to audiences.
Theatrical and teaser trailers
Teaser trailers are shorter, around 90 seconds, as films are still in early production and lack sufficient footage. They aim to pique audience interest without revealing too much of the plot. Theatrical trailers are longer at 2.5 minutes as films are nearly complete, so they can showcase more exciting shots and story elements to attract viewers closer to the release date. The key difference is that teaser trailers introduce a film with very limited material while theatrical trailers have more complete films to promote.
Single Camera Techniques: Intro, genre, formats, uses
This document provides an introduction to techniques, genres, and formats for single camera short films. It explains that the lesson will cover single camera techniques and having students make their own single camera drama. Key points covered include: single camera films scenes one at a time from different angles compared to multi-camera; common formats are singles (self-contained stories), serials (one story over several episodes), and series (using characters across different stories); and common genres include horror, action, and sitcoms. Students will participate in activities to identify genres, examples, and explain single camera concepts.
Single Camera filming: an Introduction to genre, formats and uses
An introduction to single camera filming techniques looking at its genres, formats and uses. This is an introduction intended for 16+ learners
Film making completion
The document discusses differences between film adaptations of novels and the original novels. Novels can provide more detailed stories and character development due to having more time compared to movies which are limited to around 4 minutes per scene. The genre of a film aims to appeal to specific audiences, as some prefer comedy while others prefer drama. Film scripts serve as starting documents that include dialogue, text, and notes to help directors plan scenes, actors analyze characters, and production managers coordinate work.
Analysis 2
The trailer uses various film techniques to build tension and scare the audience. Low key lighting creates a dark, scary atmosphere. Strange sounds from a baby monitor build unease. Fast editing during panic scenes heightens tension. A rocking horse rocking on its own and a boy's fall, emphasized with repetition, foreshadow disturbing events. Camerawork like close-ups and high angles provide clues while a handheld shot at the end adds confusion. These techniques establish an unsettling tone and intrigue viewers about the horror to come.
Documentary genre and features
Documentaries aim to document real events using actual footage or reconstructions. They can use a narrator's voiceover or rely on interviews with participants. There are several types of documentaries including fully narrated, fly on the wall, mixed, self-reflective, docu-drama, and docu-soap. Key features include observation, interviews, carefully composed shots, a sense of drama, and exposition to advance the argument. While using real footage, documentaries still involve a high level of construction through directing participants and organizing settings.
Narrative enigmas in trailers
This document discusses narrative conventions and structures in horror movie trailers, specifically those involving vampires. It notes that vampire movies often use non-linear narratives through techniques like flashbacks and flash-forwards to build tension. Trailers for these types of movies typically do not reveal the full storyline or clearly define which characters are heroes or villains, leaving audiences with enigmas that intrigue them and make them want to watch the full film. The goal is to draw in viewers without giving away all the key plot details.

Introduction to Media Studies: Storyboards
A storyboard is a visual plan of the shots for a film or video. It helps filmmakers visualize how the film will look, communicate their vision to others, and plan the production more efficiently. A storyboard sketches each scene's composition, camera angles and movement, lighting, transitions, and other relevant details. It allows directors to experiment with different visual approaches before filming and helps the camera and art crews understand their roles. While professional storyboard artists exist, directors often storyboard their own films for creative control and low-cost experimentation during pre-production.
Presentation on single camera
The single-camera setup is a method of filmmaking and video production where a single camera is used to film each scene. For each shot or angle, the camera is moved and repositioned while the lighting is typically reconfigured. This differs from multi-camera setups where multiple cameras film a scene simultaneously from different angles.

Research on editing on trailers 1
- 1. Research on editing on trailers By Leticia Silva
- 3. Immediate editing technique used and why? • The pace of the trailer is normally average because it emphasises normality and a calm atmosphere until the tension starts. • The have dissolve transitions to show a change of time and between the transitions there’s titles slowly appearing with creepy sounds affects to slow enhance the fear feeling. • As the pace picks up there’s lots of fast cutaways for high intense enigma’s. • There’s flashbacks to establish why the terrible things are happening to the characters. • The pace in the middle is really fast and then it slows down when it reaches the climax and there’s a final mix oh sounds affects and editing on the footage to give the viewers the last scare. • Sometimes if the trailer is really trying to show originality by putting the footage together backwards and then fast forwarding things really fast in one go.
- 4. How does the pace change and why? • Normally sometimes the pace will start slow and give the trailer a feeling of normality to emphasises the huge change in the characters life and as supernatural horrors they warn the viewers of the moments. • However the pace does pick of and give the viewers a more jumpy affect making the viewers feel engaged with whatever is going on. • Sometimes when the climax is really high and intense they slow down the pace completely to have that on the edge of your chair feeling to scary you one last time.
- 5. What editing technique is used in different genres and why? • Depending on the type of genre it is the editing would be different to have different types of affects on its viewers. • For example in dramatic movies they would have more eye-line match, shot reverse shot, 180 degree rule, the pace is medium (depending on the plot). • In horror movies there’s more: cutaways, the pace is fast mixed with slow to tense up the mood, there’s more special effects of how the footage appears, there’s lots of cross cutting, the transitions are either straight cuts or dissolve and sometimes they have insert shots and flashbacks. • In action movies there plenty of : eye-line match, shot reverse shot, cross cutting, the pace is fast, lots of match on action and sometimes they have montage editing to show the characters progression.
- 6. How does the editing connect/ compliment the plot and narrative structure? • The fast pace creates the thriller feeling and if there’s no thriller feeling to it, it does not create the correct feeling for the trailer to have the right atmosphere. • If there’s shot reverse shot it will be really fast so it will be a little confusing for the viewers to not catch a lot of what’s going on. • If the editing does not compliment the genre then there will be not be a great understanding of how sad or intense a moment is and it also helps the viewers understand how the characters feel.
- 7. What editing skills do you find inspirational? • I found that the use of titles placed in the correct place and timing to not take the distraction away from the trailer was really good. • The use of slow transitions or the dissolve transitions to fall in line with tense moments of the trailer of the trailer.
