Advanced Techniques 12 movie clips

1, a clip that is the best way to compact clip tense scene but not to make it too short. This means the actor dialogue edited out unnecessary pauses. Shorter sentence in the middle of a blank portion, even minus the lengthy dialogue unimportant. However, before the cut off dialogue, please seek the director's comments. In general, my approach is to start editing the exact version, rather than cut down a long movie again. Most of the attention of movie audiences is generally not more than 90 minutes, the equivalent of the length of the movie in general. If the beginning of the movie finishes cutting a length of approximately 100 minutes, you basically need to continue to cut to 90 minutes to make the film more compact. But if the initial film finishes cutting up to two hours or more, it would need "major operation" was. 2, many temporary musicians clips like background music clips with the temporary movie, the music as a temporary placeholder. Here, I propose not advocate that approach for two reasons. First, if people like the music it is difficult to find temporary good feeling suitable soundtrack. Second, temporary concert to be your "spiritual pillar." When the boring scenes accompanied by fun music, you will be more tolerant. I prefer to cut out a powerful movie scenes and makes the perfect present by an appropriate editor. If a scene can own tenable, that the soundtrack would be icing on the cake. The only exception is the montage of music settings. So, I was editing when you can do better. 3. Do not use the Roland Garros clip methods. The original French TV series using a specific dialogue editing mode: sound and picture perfectly synchronized, there is no overlapping parts. Commonly used methods are: A screen -A finished cutting dialogue - cut B picture -B finished - A picture cut back, this has been turn down the clip. Clips master Walter Murch will be named this clip methods French style clips law. But in fact, the audience with sound and picture clip does not coincide better response. I think this clip methods closer to real life, we first heard someone began to speak, and then look up. Or a person is speaking, we will see our friends response. This clip methods closer to people's natural reaction will make the film more smooth. 4, the operation in conjunction with actor gestures, props, sight or walk one clip methods. But Walter Murch said the best way is to let emotions natural to us, or cut smooth narrative rhythm, but is the most technically clip does not require consideration. But it must not be ignored, because the action is not difficult to make the audience into match play. However, an editor friend always told me, "will be tied too much emphasis on matching clip." If the audience completely into the drama, they often ignore the existence of the problem of discontinuity shots. Clip job is to try to make the audience into the story being. 5, mobile photography lens The lens is the primary means of action films, the camera can track, jib cameras, Steadicam or handheld cameras. Action movies usually exhibit tense atmosphere. When I was editing the film, I like to make a clip at the camera movement, ensure a succession of lenses are in motion, but many soldiers do not agree with the director, they prefer in front of the camera starts moving or stops moving after the clip. But I prefer compact clip, which allows the audience dizzying. 6, do not always carry out the clip with the same angle if the director took many different camera angles, do not always cut back to the same mechanical angle, or re-read the same line type lens bit recently used. Of course, in a dialogue scene, only two angles, it is difficult to avoid duplicate clips, but if the director shot the framework according to the different needs of different shot, it might reflect the director's intention through the clip. Do not be trapped clips rules, such as the main lens / single shot / reverse, the main lens / single-lens / or reverse. You can try to mix and match it. 7, shot in groups of three, when necessary switch scenes, usually in groups of three. For at least 1.5 to 2 seconds may be longer. For example, in the lead into the room to look around the scene, with groups of three clip-view camera to visually show to the audience the protagonist sees the entire scene, mimicking the real world our audience immersive. 8, the actor's eyes focused on the actors in the clip on television, film and stage are based on face to attract attention, but the most important is the actor's eyes. When the clip is intense dialogue scenes, I pay attention to the actor's eyes. Do they convey the proper emotions? How to play the actors react? The actors decide my clips. This principle makes me focus more on dialogue to convey the main actors and cut off other people's reactions. 9, excluding performers in the "air" and similar to the first point - I like compact clip. Note that most of the actors are performing exaggerated, over an appropriate degree. Actor will emphasize pause, an increase of more errors than the script requirements, the performance is more stuttering, glanced longer, but the clip's responsibility is to make the show back to normal by appropriate clips. Cut the lengthy action and dialogue, to make the film real and not contrived. 10 forming the story is said to have three movies in the world: the script type, shooting type, clip type. Whether you clip which type, should attach great attention to the context of the story, do not be afraid to change the script or shooting content, as long as it makes sense to do this. Many editors use the screen for record sub-mirror script presents the story visually. This can help you determine the most logical fluent story presented to the audience. 11, the use of digital auxiliary equipment like modern NLEs and finishing techniques such as digital media available to the producer a lot of aid. For example, the digital image can be enlarged many times. You can use these tools to zoom by zoom lens to shoot a wide scene or close-up, if the shot with RED digital camera with 35mm film that would be easy to do. As long as the image quality, do not be afraid to shoot closer to the focal length. Many editors often discussed with a multi-screen for editing. Usually it refers to the timing of the two actors and the default does not match (for example, in an over the shoulder shot or double close-up), but you can cut out the appropriate scene rhythm, slow down time between two actors. If the camera is locked, the actors' movements overlap too complex, you can use a simpler way to create new OTS lens. Two actors have to produce a deviation in the timing of performing the visual effects. 12, make their own choices, but should also consider the other person as an editor's role is to form the story grasp the rhythm of the film. The most important thing is to help achieve a creative director of visual effects. But you have to have your own ideas. Most editors are independently first cut. It is marked with a distinctive personal mark you in the movie the first opportunity. After the initial cut is completed, the director and editor will work together to put the clip into the director desired version. When you change a clip and the actor's performance made all the audience's choice affect the viewing experience. For example, cut off part of the dialogue repeated tension can enhance the picture. It conveys that, even if the work can not be finished filming the clip neglect. Decisions made by editors can easily change the scene to convey the feelings, so any decision must be subject to the plot. Of course, only there is a logical reason and when the director agreed that you can make such a clip, if you do not agree we should offer alternatives. I prefer to choose the best scene before recall viewfinder lens. Initially, the director may mark from four shots of the third and fourth for the shooting range, I might actually start with the first shot, then after the fourth shot by half. Introduction actor during repeated conversation dialogue, I often cut viewfinder lens contains little interlude scene. Although you have a good explanation of the reasons you want to do a clip, but should also be ready to deal with change. Most directors do not look back at the post-production each taking lens, but modified according to your version of the clip show, whether or not appreciate the actor's performance. If they really appreciate the different performances of a performer, they will propose to amend the clip or from the viewfinder lens to find the right part. Clips scenes look and feel more present the most convincing acting, directing the more agree with your technology.
