The document discusses editing techniques for making cuts appear invisible. It explains that cutting "on action" during motion within a clip produces a smooth edit, as the motion flows between shots. It also discusses maintaining the focal point, such as a person's eyes, when cutting between shots to guide the viewer's attention. Finally, it explains that editors use "beats" to measure time between cuts, ensuring objects have time to move naturally between shots and keeping the narrative clear for the viewer.

Sta travel
The document describes a video advertisement for STA Travel Australia that uses a montage of short clips showing the same man in different locations cut together quickly. The fast-paced editing of the changing locations and clothing creates a flowing piece of footage. Each clip is cut to motion, keeping the man continually moving to prevent the footage from becoming jarring and making the film visually interesting despite the changing surroundings.
Journey edit
This document discusses editing techniques for a journey sequence showing someone taking a picnic to the forest. First, it notes that cuts between footage filmed through a moving car window need to be made where there is little background motion to avoid a jarring effect. Second, although jump cuts were needed due to different locations, they reinforced the story of the journey rather than obscuring it. Finally, matching shots based on movement within the frame helped ease cuts between handheld and stationary footage, making the edits more successful.
The little things
The document summarizes the editing process for a short film based on a script. Scenes of dialogue with a psychiatrist bookended a montage revealing the central character's inner thoughts through 0.3 second clips of his face. Shots were chosen that moved similarly to create seamless cuts. Effects were used to give the film a noir feel and tense atmosphere. Ambient sound from rushes extended across the footage to ensure continuous sound, while tapping was overlaid to build tension. Audio levels were adjusted to be consistent in volume. Rearranging some shots could have clarified the narrative by simplifying transitions between awake and asleep states.
Psycho for blog
The iconic shower scene from Psycho uses pace and editing techniques to build tension and sympathy for the character. It begins and ends slowly with about 30 seconds of fast-paced stabbing in the middle. Fewer cuts are used to focus on Marion and build suspense as she is attacked. The high-pitched score during the fast cuts and slowing music afterward reinforce the stabbing and Marion's slow death, eliciting an emotional response from the audience.
Photoshop for blog
To create the illusion of a single image, Photoshop was used to manipulate multiple images. Unwanted items were removed from the background image using selection tools. Then, the astronaut foreground image was selected using the Polygonal Lasso Tool to cut out the unwanted background. This astronaut image was placed on the Mars background. Additional editing was done to resolve issues like the blue Earth still visible in the astronaut's helmet visor by cutting around the transparent part and placing it on a new layer with its blending mode set to screen. Simple enlargements of the foreground image then allowed it to fit proportions of the background layer.

Chase
Chase sequences involve fast-paced editing between shots of a protagonist and antagonist. Editing a chase sequence from mobile phone footage was challenging due to the unsteady handheld shots. Cutting between clips was jarring due to different movement within each shot. Getting stationary shots would have helped. There was also a lack of coverage from different angles and close-ups, leaving out key details and making the editing less interesting. Planning shots like famous chase sequences would improve coverage and variety for a more engaging edit.

It explains that each layer needs to be individually placed in After Effects and set to 3D to allow independent movement. Once all layers are in place, the camera tool is used to apply axes and allow layers to be moved at different angles, creating space between them and producing a 3D effect when rotated.
Types of cut
The document discusses several types of cuts used in film and television editing to convey meaning and tell stories. A hard cut simply transitions between two clips without effects. A cross cut jumps between two simultaneous stories in different locations. A cut away focuses on a specific aspect of a scene to build tension. A jump cut skips forward in time. Match cuts connect objects or scenes seamlessly. Match on action establishes relationships by showing a character looking at something before cutting to it. Shot reverse shot reveals reactions between characters in a conversation.

Gerry for blog
The document discusses a scene from the film "Gerry" where two men are shown walking away from the camera in a single uncut shot. This long take uses an extreme long shot to depict the vast emptiness around the men as they walk. By not cutting away, the audience sees how long the walk is for the characters and the changing light of the sunrise, reinforcing the tedious and isolated experience of their walk through the desert.

Why is editing effective in a horror film
The document discusses various editing techniques that are effective in horror films. It explains cuts and variations like jump cuts that change viewpoints suddenly to create drama. Cutting rhythm and rate can emphasize points and induce shock through frequent interruptions. Cross-cuts and cutaway shots change between lines of action or intercut other shots. Motion on action makes repeated actions seem interesting. Reaction shots show a person responding to an event. Transitions like fades and dissolves are alternatives to cuts. Shot reverse shots capture reactions during conversations. Superimpositions place images over each other to create metaphors. Split screens divide the screen to show multiple simultaneous images.
Cuts used in films
A jump cut is a transition between two shots which appears to "jump" due to the way the shots are framed in relation to each other.
Jump cuts are usually caused by framing which is quite similar, such as these two:
Camerawork 2014
This document discusses various techniques of camera work that should be considered when analyzing representations in media texts, including shot type, position, angle, composition, depth of field, and movement. It provides examples of different camera angles and their effects, such as low angles making the viewer feel small and high angles making the viewer feel powerful. It also explains techniques like selective focus, where part of the frame is in focus while the rest is blurred, and rack focus, where the focal point changes within the frame. The document encourages analyzing how camerawork and movement are used in clips from Skins and The Bill to understand their effect.
Camerawork lesson
This document discusses various shot types and camera movements used in television dramas and their effects. It identifies six common shot types - low angle, high angle, tilted angle, bird's eye view, worm's eye view, and eye level. It also discusses three types of camera movements - pan, tilt, and track. Depth of field and selective focus are explained as well. Students are asked to analyze examples from the films Dead Man and Skins to understand how these techniques impact viewers and convey meaning.
Continuity editing presentation
Continuity editing techniques are used to smoothly transition between shots and ensure consistency. This includes shot reverse shot which cuts between two characters facing each other, establishing shots which set the scene location, the 180 degree rule which keeps the camera on the same side of action, matching on action which cuts to shots portraying the same action, and eye line matches which show what a character is looking at off screen. These techniques help stories flow seamlessly from one shot to the next.

Ayv shot compositionhandout
The document discusses various techniques for composing shots and framing photographs effectively. It recommends paying attention to elements in the frame and background, following the rule of thirds for subject placement, adjusting the foreground and background with aperture settings, changing the line of sight and camera angles, including elements that guide the eye, finding patterns, getting close for texture and details, and cropping to emphasize the intended subject. It also defines different types of camera shots and angles that can be used.
Editing
Editing is traditionally focused on continuity to immerse the audience in the story. The purpose of editing in drama includes identification, conflict, and intensification to make the action seem fluid. Editing pace and techniques like juxtaposition, cuts, matches, and cross-cuts are used to convey meaning and develop the narrative through tempo, emotion, tension, and reactions. Proper editing also considers match on action, jump cuts, cut aways, and transitions to seamlessly guide the audience through the story.
Editing
Editing is traditionally focused on continuity to fully immerse the audience in the story. The purpose of editing includes identification, conflict, and intensification to make the action seem fluid. Editing pace and techniques like juxtaposition, cuts, matches, and cross-cuts are used to convey meaning and develop the narrative through visual contrasts and transitions between shots at the same or different times. Proper editing hides the construction process to seamlessly move the story forward.
Film Editing
This document discusses various film editing techniques:
- Continuity editing cuts between shots smoothly to maintain a continuous narrative flow.
- Montage editing assembles shots quickly to summarize information or depict the passage of time.
- Cross cutting alternates between different shots of simultaneous action to depict multiple storylines.
- Dissolves gradually transition between shots to imply the passage of time.
- Wipes noticeably replace one shot with another across the screen, usually for action or adventure films.
- Action editing uses rapid cuts between shots to emphasize fast-paced action scenes through hundreds of shots.
Editing for film
Editing is used to make motion pictures flow coherently between scenes and enhance visual effects. There are typically three stages of editing: rough cut, director's cut, and final cut. Editing techniques like shot reverse shot and the 180-degree rule help generate meaning and keep narratives coherent by facilitating the audience's understanding of characters' perspectives and spatial relationships. Timing, continuity, and invisible editing are important aspects of constructing suspense and maintaining realism in films.

Continuity editing aims to seamlessly move the story along and immerse viewers in the plot. Editing in drama uses techniques like identification, conflict, and intensification to make the construction process unnoticeable to viewers. Common editing techniques include cuts, matched cuts, jump cuts, cross cuts, and cutaways which juxtapose shots to create meaning and maintain rhythm. Editing also employs transitions like fades, dissolves, and wipes as well as effects like slow motion and montages.

The document discusses various types of video editing transitions such as cuts, dissolves, fades, and wipes that can be used to transition between shots, as well as different camera shots including mid shots, close-ups, and two-shots that frame subjects in different ways. It also covers basic camera techniques like panning, tilting, zooming, and trucking/dollying to smoothly move the camera and change perspectives.
Transcript for the presentation
The presentation discusses various psychological concepts that are relevant to web design, including:
- Gestalt principles of visual perception like similarity, continuity, closure, and anomaly that influence how users organize visual elements on a page.
- Attractiveness bias, where more aesthetically pleasing designs draw more initial attention from users.
- Operant conditioning and priming, where websites can encourage repeat behaviors from users through positive and negative reinforcement of actions.
- Selective disregard, where users often miss or ignore elements on a page that do not match their expectations or task at hand, such as banner ads or non-standard forms.
The presentation emphasizes that understanding human psychology and perception can help designers create more intuitive
editing notes sheet
This document discusses editing techniques used in filmmaking. It begins by explaining that most films use continuity editing to seamlessly move the story and immerse viewers. Common goals of editing in drama are identification, conflict, and intensification. The editing process is focused on creating meaning rather than removing material. Editing pace can suggest emotion through slow cuts or tension with fast cuts. Common techniques include cuts, match cuts between shots, jump cuts for effect, cross-cutting between locations, cutaways to reaction shots, and graphic matches between shots. Dissolves and fades are also used to transition between scenes over time or place.
"Do I have your attention?" Chris Atherton at UX Cambridge 2014
1) Attention is a finite resource that is easily distracted and drawn to novel things. User interfaces need to manage attention wisely.
2) Cognitive load, including extraneous load from poor UI design, can overwhelm users and prevent them from processing information. Novice users and those under stress have limited cognitive resources.
3) Interfaces should minimize elements, break information into digestible chunks, and account for discontinuities in user attention in order to reduce cognitive load.
Rule of thirds power point
The document discusses the Rule of Thirds technique for photographic composition. It explains that the Rule of Thirds involves imagining a 3x3 grid over the frame and placing subjects or key elements of the photo at the intersection points or along the grid lines. This creates a more balanced and interesting composition compared to centering subjects. The document provides examples and also discusses other compositional techniques like leading lines, framing, and cropping. It emphasizes experimenting with different compositional techniques.
Rule of thirds & Composition
The document discusses the Rule of Thirds composition technique. It explains that the Rule of Thirds involves imagining a 3x3 grid over the frame and placing subjects or points of interest along the lines or intersections to create a balanced, interesting image. While the Rule of Thirds is a basic principle, rules can be broken effectively if the photographer understands the rule first. The document provides examples and discusses other compositional techniques like balancing elements, using leading lines, and considering viewpoint, framing, cropping, and experimentation.

Colour correction
Colour plays an important role in film by conveying different moods and emotions through its use. The colour grading process during post-production allows precise control over the colours in a film by manipulating the lightness, darkness and hue of the footage. Effective colour grading adds meaning and triggers emotional responses in audiences by dominating scenes with certain colour palettes like using reds to create warmth or blues to imply coldness.
Point break
The chase sequence in Point Break uses fast cuts and handheld footage to build tension as two men struggle to catch up to or get away from each other. Cross-cuts show both perspectives, creating more depth and tension as the audience does not know their proximity. Comedy is also generated when one man throws a dog to distract the other. The scene ends with slow motion shots and dramatic music to reinforce the tension and signal the climax.
Sound
Sound is a key part of film that brings audiences into the story and creates emotion. In Gravity, sounds were added to footage taken in space where sound cannot travel. This was done to engage audiences more fully. Sounds aid the story and surround viewers in the film's world. Without sound, audiences feel disconnected. Foley artists create unique background sounds through objects to add atmosphere and realism that enhances each scene, even if these sounds play a minor narrative role.
20 shots
Deadpool is an action/comedy film based on a Marvel comic book. The fast-paced editing with quick cuts throughout builds tension during fight scenes and chases, keeping the audience engaged. The pacing of the edits also matches the snappy jokes and satirical humor in the film, giving insights into what will happen next. Overall, the editing takes a stereotypical style for action and superhero films, using pace to enhance both the comedy and action elements of the hybrid genre film.
20 shots
The document discusses the goals and techniques used in editing a short 20-shot film. It aimed for simple storytelling using well-composed shots and hard cuts. During editing, extra shots were cut, even beautiful ones, to maintain a continuous visual and audio flow that avoided jarring transitions and kept the audience's attention. The audio was edited last by adjusting levels to -14 dB for consistent volume without loud or quiet sounds. Overlaying ambient room noise would have further improved the sound quality.
Aco blog
The document discusses the use of contrapuntal sound editing in A Clockwork Orange and Reservoir Dogs. It explains that both films use upbeat songs during scenes of violence to contrast the serious visuals and reveal the volatile nature of characters. Specifically, A Clockwork Orange has the protagonist sing during a violent home invasion and Reservoir Dogs uses a song during an ear cutting torture scene. The technique provides information about characters' emotions while also making the extreme violence easier for audiences to watch.
The kuleshov effect for blog
The Kuleshov Effect is a montage technique created by Soviet filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in the early 1900s that demonstrates how the brain connects two sequential shots, making it more effective than a single isolated shot. An example is a close-up of a man's expressionless face cut between shots of a bowl of soup, a girl in a coffin, and a beautiful woman, which appears to change his emotion from hunger to sadness to lust due to the audience's assumptions about what he is looking at. Kuleshov showed how editing can influence the emotions audiences derive from a sequence.
Transporter 3 for blog
The BMX chase sequence in Transporter 3 begins slowly and builds tension through quick edits that reflect the increasing pressure felt by the character. Short cuts between the man on the bike and the woman in the car show their connection and the man's urgency to catch up to her. An interesting editing technique used in the beginning phone call cuts the audio after each person speaks instead of showing reactions, depicting the distance between the two men through the edit.
Gaucho for blog
The editor faced several challenges when editing the film project "Gaucho". Footage required color grading due to lighting issues on set. Audio also needed to be synced with images and leveled to create consistent sound. Coverage between shots from different cameras was sometimes uneven, requiring some shots to be cut down or removed. Continuity issues arose from differing lighting and camera placements, so color grading was used in post-production to resolve inconsistencies. The separately recorded audio was synced to images and leveled to equalize sound recorded from varying distances.
Fight club
The document discusses the 1999 film Fight Club and some of its interesting editing techniques. It describes how single frames of Tyler Durden were inserted into shots behind Jack to reveal Tyler's entrance into his life. It also discusses how when the character Marla Singer is introduced, the editing pace is slowed to highlight her importance and allow her to be fetishized as the only female in the male-dominated film.

The editing techniques are used to emphasize character development and draw attention to key characters.
Conspiracy theory edit for blog
The document summarizes the creation of a 4-5 minute conspiracy theory video edited using Adobe Premier Pro. The editor chose to use a montage style which is fast-paced to get their point across quickly. Footage was sourced from YouTube and cut before adding to the timeline to enable refining cuts. The most difficult part was creating pace without enough coverage, and the editor would source more footage for future edits.
Montage for blog
The montage edit is commonly used in films to quickly show the passage of time or develop a character. Montages allow filmmakers to convey information in a short, attention-grabbing way rather than through long sequences. One iconic example is from Rocky, where a montage set to uplifting music shows Rocky training for a fight and allows audiences to engage with his development and the compressed time.
Strike
Eisenstein's 1925 film "Strike" uses juxtaposition in a slaughter scene to build tension. It cuts between images of people running and a cow being slaughtered, implying the people are fleeing similar brutality. Their military uniforms suggest they are being dehumanized, like the cow. This conveys that war sends men to their slaughter, just like the cow, shocking viewers through the juxtaposition of gruesome images.
Goodfellas
The fast cuts in the Goodfellas helicopter sequence allow the action to flow smoothly to the music and feel more natural. The cuts also condense time to keep the audience engaged as everyday actions are portrayed more quickly. Match cuts are used to reveal to the audience what the character sees and increase tension as the sequence pace picks up after cutting to the helicopter, suggesting it is important to the character.
City of god for blog
The Brazilian film 'City Of God' follows the life of Rocket, a young boy growing up in one of the most dangerous favelas in Brazil. Flashbacks are used heavily in the film to provide backstory on each character Rocket encounters. The first flashback features Rocket seemingly spinning as the time changes from present to the 1960s, with the young Rocket fading in through a dissolve edit to transform the setting and clearly state the change in time.
Avid editing blog
I began editing a script sequence in Avid, following the director's instructions on shot types and dialogue order. While completing the task, my Avid editing skills improved as I gained insight into how editors follow instructions. The main difficulty was inconsistent audio, which I solved by altering levels and volumes between rushes to create a more continuous edit.
Premier pro for blog
The document summarizes the author's work editing a short video sequence in Premier Pro over the week. They used in and out point markers and speed/duration tools to slow down and reverse clips of a surfer. An audio track was added throughout to make the sequence more interesting and flowing. Going forward, the author will edit sequences in AVID software to gain experience with industry standard tools and further improve their editing skills.
Raindance for blog
The document discusses three films shown at the 2015 Raindance Independent Film Festival in London. It summarizes two short films, "Pigs" and "The Reaper", focusing on their use of long takes and slow editing. While "Pigs" uses these techniques effectively to create a somber tone that matches the story, "The Reaper" uses long takes and slow cuts that detract from the film and make it difficult for the audience to maintain attention. Visiting the festival provided a film student opportunities to learn about unconventional editing styles seen in independent films.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The eye is quicker
- 1. 28/12/2015 The eye is quicker- Richard D. Pepperman, 2004: MichaelWiese Productions After reading The eye is quicker, new insights into successful editing techniques and practises were learned. “Cut on Action. This is a simple practise to facilitate a safe cut- a cut that is more or less inconspicuous.” (mind watching the cuts page 7) This quote explains why cutting a piece of footage during motion within the clip is necessary to produce a successful edit. Although this technique had already been previously explored, the statement has enabled me to gain a better understanding of the concept. In order to make the cuts in an edit appear invisible to the eye they must be “Cut on Action.” in order to make the motion within the frame flow into the next one without the cut being as noticeable. Another technique stated in the book that I have found useful is “maintaining the focal point” (editing with two left feet page 16). When cutting between two different shots of the same person, a medium and a long shot for example, it is essential to cut with the movement of focal points such as the eyes or the face rather than a different part of the body. This is due to the face and eyes taking preference over any other focal point. A person will subconsciously be drawn to focus on a face or eyes on screen therefore an edit will flow more effectively and be more invisible if it is cut on action to one of these areas. “If you ‘find’ the focal point you’ll ‘find the cut’.” (editing with two left feet page 15) Beats are the measurements of time within an edit to make it flow and be consistent. These beats do not, however, have a specific length. They are instinctive choices made by the editor about where one shot should cut in order for the next to follow on in keeping with the pace of movement within the frame. The use of beats by the editor prevents the people and objects within the scene from jumping from one place to the next with insufficient time for them to move in between. This enables the spectator to follow the narrative of the filmand keeps the cuts invisible to them.
