Making editing decisions

 Today I decided what part of the film our group will be editing, once the filming portion of our film is complete. I decided that I would complete the majority of the editing, especially during the end parts of the film. I made this decision because I have the most experience with editing. Furthermore, I also have knowledge of important editing tactics. Methods like split screen, jump cuts, fades and more are common, and I plan to use in our film. I also decided to edit the middle-end section of the film, because this is where the most action will happen. This section of the film is the most technical when it comes to editing. Therefore, it might take someone with more experience in the field. I plan to use Imovie to edit my film. It is also more efficient for me to edit, because I will also be the primary filmer. Its important for clips and shots to have a clean and clear export when transferring from devices. As a result, I decided to film so the clips are on my phone. This means that our group can bypass the transfer of shots through devices, allowing for an easier exportation. Furthermore, Our group decided that only a limited amount of people (one or two) should edit the film. My group noticed that we all have different editing styles and preferances. To avoid a mix of different editing styles, my group thought I should edit for the best. I am also the most familiar with Imovie. Hopefully, the editing goes smoothly once the shots are complete. I am looking for a simple edit, with minimal special effects or back-rounds


. This was todays progress regarding how we will edit!

Genre research : (comedy)

       The first genre that our group chose is comedy. Here are the common camera angles, mis-en-scene, sounds, editing. As well as some example films. Common Angles: There are many different angles that are widely used in the comedy genre. To start, commonly extreme close ups as well as close up shots are used. These shots are usually shown to help the audience understand or grasp on the humor portrayed by facial expressions, and reactions from the subjects on the film. Furthermore, other angles are widely seen in comedy, like wide shots. Wide shots are used mainly to fit a large gathering into one shot, and by doing this it opens the door to group comedy, and other characters to fit into the scene or story play. Finally, the last common camera angle that we see a lot in this genre is eyeline shots. An eyeline shot in comedy is the subjects way to often tell the audience directly, the joke or line being said. These are some common angles that are used in comedy!! Co...
