23/09/20 notes on continuity

 Effective story telling when it comes to film is important,you are creating something that isn't real and making people believe its real.Continuity editing is essentially a magic trip. Pacing and trajectory of the story. Continuity isn't just the set, it can be makeup, movement,speed and also character actions. Try to maintain a left-right on continuity.  180 degree rule is a basic guideline that states that two characters should always have the same left/right relationship to each other.

Educating No one

To learn editing skills as a class, we had to assign roles such as director, cameraman, and actors. The premise was to make a knock off educating yorkshire, and also create an element of supernatural or superpowers. After we had filmed this, we were then made to edit it individually. We had included talking heads, titles, cutaways, music, a variety of shots and voice overs. Overall, it was fun to edit and learn how to use premiere pro. I think my editing skills have greatly improved due to this and i enjoyed brainstorming ideas on how to portray certain characters. For example, we had a naughty student (played by joey) and then a teachers pet (played by Mia) as well as an 'odd student' that secretly has powers (played by Sinead.) here is an example of a cutaway used- as well as a shot from a talking heads clip and also where i utilised titles in order to introduce the show; here is the link to watch the full edited video; https://youtu.be/DYMwZpk_6tE
