Photogram

This whole idea was experiment with light sensitve paper, similar to traditional photography techniques. First thing  we've placed the Natureprint Paper against the sun and place a flat object on top of the paper while its being laid out in the sun for 2 mins. After the two minutes is done, protect the paper from the sun and face it to you. Then you ran the paper under cold water. This stop the paper reacting from the light. I think let the paper dry. The areas of the paper which were exposed to light went dark blue and the areas which were in the shade or covered by an object went white.

This is an early technique that was pioneer by the photographer Man Ray. He even named the technique after himself called the Rayogram!

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.
