Introduction to editing (Editing: The Invisible Art)
• What is crosscutting?
It crosscuts back and forth between the two climbers comparing their progress up the cliff and then cuts back to the anxious audience for reaction shots.
• What are reaction shots?
The shots are varied from close-ups to long shots, and show the men as tiny and a relation to the vast cliff-face their clinging too.
• What is seamless editing?
Because of the drama of the situation and the way the sequence is being constructed, we don't really notice the work of the editor with a seen like this, its was known as seamless editing.
• What is a jump cut?
As a sound of the gong fades, the camera cuts to reveal a much smaller bowl, the filmmaker has used to what its called a jump cut.
• What is a flash back and what does it achieve?
Flashbacks takes the audience from one point in time to another, there often use to shown as known as backstory.
A key moment or period in the characters life which explains how they got to where they are now.
• How can editing be used poetically?
Editing poetically can be confusing for the first time you see it, from umbrella's in the rain outside the cinema, it dissolves through to an audiences and pans across to see twp weeping women.
Introduction to editing (Hustle)
• Overhead establishing shot – what does this achieve?
The director sets out the space where the action will take place and the character's position's within the room.
• What is Shot-Reverse-Shot?
Shot Reverse Shot simply means by cutting back and forth between the two men, we assume that their looking at and talking to each other.
• What is Eye-line matching?
The big man standing up looks off-screen and down, where is the seated man looks offscreen and up, we guess from the angle of their eyes that their looking at each other
• Why do we cut to the other members of the group?
The main character Sean lays out the plan, and as he is talking for the most of the scene, the editor could've chosen to stay on a single shot of him but instead we cut to different members of the gang. Sometimes individually, sometimes in two shots, so we can see their faces and their reactions both to the plan and to each other.
• What is a wipe?
The editor then uses a slick transition called the wipe to move the action to different location and time and choses a diagonal angle to show us a disorienting view of a building site.
• What is the effect of using quick cuts?
The first minute of this excerpt is made from 26 different shots, some are quite long and others only last a second or two and these creates a fast rhythm which intern to keep the story moving along and the audience on their toes.
Introduction to editing (The Gloaming)
Introduction to editing
The Gloaming
What is editing?
Editing is a process of selecting into different shots, and joining them together to make a story.
What is Eliptical Editing?
Eliptical Editing- it allows us to fill in the gaps, moves the story on more quickly, it takes up less actual time on screen.
Why are long shots used?
The choice of a long shot is used to remind us where she is and tells us she is alone.
What is ‘non-diagetic sound’?
The sounds in this shot are dripping water and birdcalls are part of the natural world around her. But after a while we begin to hear something else. A note of music playing underneath the sounds of nature this is called Non-diagetic sound. The music isn’t actually playing there at the lake, the character can’t hear it but crucially the viewer can.
How do we know she is bending down to pick up the ring? (What shots are used and why?)
Then the character looks down and to the right of the frame, As she bends down, we cut to the ring buried in the grass, and because this shot follows the previous one of her looking down, we fill in the gaps and make the connection that the ring is what she's looking at. The director could instead have chosen a longer uninterrupted shot in which we saw her bending down all the way. But cutting the two images together of the girl and the ring is a quicker way of making the same point.
Evaluation (Playing with Time)
In this short film of The Gloaming see a couple who were just married and flashes back to a long shot scence where she is looking straight into the camera and flashes back to her husband on where he asking her to go on a ride him. She bends down and saw a ring buried down as she bend down the camera cuts to the ring and to her face to know that the ring is hers. It then shows a scene where she is sitting next to the camp fire burning a piece of paper remembering her husband. She then went inside the caravan and saw something underneath the blanket which she thought it was her husband sleeping, but she decides to check who's underneath the blanket she saw a skull of a dead person and it scared her to death.

PHotography Pitch
My video pitch is basically to think about different ideas for a magazine which basically can be on topic where you are most interested in. Some of the students on the New media lvl 3 course has picked fashion, travel, music, and art. I have picked architecture which based on the different landmarks around the central london. The good thing about creating a london landmark magazine is to show the tourists from other countries just how impressive the buildings are around london and what are the histories about the common buildings like the Buckingham Palace, Houses of Parliament and the London eye. I have also included on my video pitch different venues where there's some live entertainment being played e.g. The o2 Arena and the Wembley Stadium.
Evaluation of final photographs
Before the deadline was due, i was thinking about taking more different pictures of different architectures in London but I should've taken more pictures than I expected. But the maximum was only 25 so I've uploaded 26 on my blog and I should've taken more pictures during the day and most of the pictures that I took was mostly by night and some by day, so I should've token more pictures during the day. And also I should've added more shutter speeds to the pictures that I have taken during the night, should've used the tripod more often and should've went to the busy streets to take more pictures of the buildings plus the shutter speeds to add more details to the pictures.
The disadvantages of my video pitch is probably to don't waste to much time on one place, I was supposed to take different pictures just in one go, but I just took to much more time from one place to another due to the travel and that's way it affected my time to take the pictures.
Large depth of field, shallow depth of field, framing
The above photographs show a large depth of field. I put the camera in AV mode (Aperture Priority) and then I dialed in a large f number (f16-f22). A large depth of field is frequently used for landscape photography.
The above pictures of Sharaya show a shallow depth of field. You can tell that the image has a shallow depth of field because because her face is in focus but the background is blurry.
The above photographs show different framing techniques. The hands and the building are framing the main focus of the photograph. Using this technique you can force the viewers eye to the area of the photograph that you want them to look at.
