We have looked at camera angles and now camera movements. These are the first steps to making a film but, after the film has been made, the hard part begins! All those shots have to be EDITED together to make sense.
Cutting describes the process of going between shots, with the purpose of advancing the story (narrative) or moving action along or changing perspectives. There are so many different cuts but we usually don't notice them because they happen so quickly!
Transition - refers to how one shot changes to the next one eg the famous Wipe in Star Wars films.
Class Work - 25 mins
Homework
Watch this video again (from 0.30 secs to 5.29 mins) and make notes on the following cuts to publish on your blog:
1)Find a film clip no longer than 3
minutes.
2)Embed the film clip onto your blog with
the title of the film
3)Analyse the editing- types of cuts used,
pace and transitions.

Homework
Watch this video again (from 0.30 secs to 5.29 mins) and make notes on the following cuts to publish on your blog:
1) Cutting on Action
2) Cut Away
3) Cross Cut
4) Jump Cut
5) Match Cut (Match on Action)
6) Fade In/Fade Out transition
7) Dissolve transition
Just define the term (say what it is) and then say WHY / WHERE often it is used.
To challenge yourselves, try and find an example of each of the cuts!
Good luck!
