The
Development (history) of video editing, from the start of cinema to modern NLE
editing systems
·
The
purposes of editing: how we create pace and engage the viewer through editing
·
The
conventions of editing: continuity, jump cuts, the 180 degree rule, dissolves
(uses of), shot-reverse-shot, cutting to a sound-track
A critical assessment of these
topics would include an understanding not just of what the history of editing is,
but also how the develop editing has affected the work of modern film makers
eg. A understanding of how jump cuts were developed and how they are used
today. Examples of historical use and present days use would also be required.
Students should also consider how their knowledge of the history of editing has
influenced their own editing.
