Editing

What is editing?

Selecting and arranging written, photographic, visual, auditory, or cinematic content that will be utilised by a person or an entity to deliver a message or information is known as editing.

 You may make your projects more interesting and your editing more effective once you have mastered the various edit kinds and understand why each one is significant under certain conditions. You can develop a completely unique editing style that showcases your artistic side.

What is continuity editing?

Continuity editing combines several camera shots—some filmed at various times or even several locations—into a smooth, cogent narrative using a range of traditional film editing techniques. This constant stream aids viewers in suspending disbelief so they may focus only on a tale without outside interruptions.

What is discontinuity editing?

Contrary to conventional cinema, or continuous editing, discontinuous editing is a distinctive form of film editing. The director will purposefully arrange shots in a discontinuous order so that they appear disjointed or perplexing when compared to a typical narrative.

Discontinuity might be the most effective technique to depict an irrational, entirely foreign world if continuity is the logical presentation of a rational universe in a way that feels authentic to viewers. In order to portray their stories the most effectively, science fiction films, horror movies, psychological thrillers, independent features, and experimental films have all benefited from confusing and even upsetting the viewer.

What is parallel editing?

When a video editor switches between two various scenes, this is called parallel editing. In the movie's reality, the scenes happen concurrently in two different places. The cross-cutting method known as parallel editing is the one that best emphasises contrast.
