Classwork : Editing Practice

 this blog post contains an editing practice that can help us in our main project. and i worked with a partner (Arnold)

Why is continuity editing important?

Continuity editing includes making sure that items like props or costumes stay consistent from scene to scene. But the more important work lies in editing shots together in a way that leaves viewers thoroughly grounded in both time and space.

Different types of continuity edit 

• Straight cut (cut)

• Eyeline match 

• Shot /reverse shot

• Cutaway / Insert 

*Match cut

Footage

Here is the footage that my teacher shot which utilises a variety of camera angles and movements. The scene is very simple, it involves a student standing up and leaving the classroom. A single shot here might be quite boring for the audience, by editing and combining the shots together we can make the scene feel more dynamic. 

My editing process

in my editing process i had problems with the internet so our teacher allowed us to use our phone, i was working with my partner on the editing, our only problem was the quality of the video but overall it went smoothly and we added a filter to make a misenscene and we also added a intense background music to make the clips much more immersive
