Editing techniques

I will use many different editing techniques in my thriller video. Editing techniques make a film seem more interesting and proffesional.
Speed of editing
Speed of editing makes the audience realise the mood of the film. If the editing is fast and changes very quickly we realise that it is a tense film or very action packed. If the editing is slow then it makes the audience feel relaxed or very calm.
Soviet Montage
Soviet montage is a type of editing whicn allows the audience to piece together two bits of information and draw an ouctome from it. An example of this is when you you put a picture of a person then after you show a burger, this makes you think the person is hungary.
  








A great example of soviet montage is in the film strike. In the scene below soviet montage is used to show that the people the guards are chasing are being murdered brutally like animals. I will use soviet monatge to recreate a graphic scene;

Graphic Match
Graphic matches are a good professional way of editing. Graphic match is the device where you place two images which are similar in shape or colour after each other so the scene changes discretely instead of using a black out which may kill the atmosphere.
