Planning Edit - Thriller Planning

We want our use of eding to emphasise the content of the film and to create both fast and slow paced scenes. the use of slow and fast scenes will emphasise the content of the film which will create suspense and mystery.

We will use a match cut, fading from a child's drawing of a woods, to a shot of a real woods. This will show our ability in editing and will create a sense of mystery linking the girl to the woods. This will be a slow shot to build suspense that will lead to a climax.

We will also use both slow and fast fades, depending on the scene. In scenes where there is little or no action we will use slow fades, this will create suspense and mystery. In fast paced scenes we will use very quick or no fades, this will create a sense of urgency within the scene and emphasises the fast pace of the scene.

Jump cut will be uses in scenes where there is not much importance or in scenes where long shots or close up shots are used. Using fades or other transitions is unnecessary in these types of shots because they are used to focus on one thing or place and need to be quick. For example in a conversation, if a camera was taking over the shoulder shots of characters, they need to be snappy to show which character is talking.
