Planning Editing Styles
Editing styles are important because they can add suspense to thrillers and can tell the audience the mood of a scene and what should be focused on within it.
There are three editing styles that I want to include in my final thriller, the first one is a slow edit, I want to include this in our thriller as I think it is conventional to the genre as in most thriller there is a scene where one of the characters will slowly walk towards something mysterious or threatening. This edit will be very effective as it will help to build suspense within my thriller.
The second edit I want to include is a jump cut as all thrillers have an event happen then suddenly switch to a character to get a reaction to it making it a convention. This could be used in the final scene of our narrative where the female victim discovers the body of the male character, showing the event and how the character feels when it happens.
he third edit I want to include is a shaky effect on the camera, I want to use this because In the main stalking scene of the male character a point of view shot will be used, this will already make the scene wild and out of control but by putting this edit over the top it will fever emphasise that the killer is out of control.

This demonstrates minimal planning techniques and this is because you have not explained the purpose of each editing style, where it will be evident in your thriller and how it will enable you in demonstrating the conventions of a thriller.
ReplyDeleteTherefore you need to elaborate on all the points that you have included in more detail.
