Transitions


In class we looked at editing in the film industry, I learnt about the different transitions between scenes and we made our own storyboard that portrayed the different transitions and the timings of the scenes, we learnt a list of transitions and the effect they give:
- jump: the sudden transition shocks the viewer and makes them jump.
- dissolve: may be used to soften obvious hard cuts that may startle the viewer.
- slide: can sometimes be used to convey the end of a fun, e.g an iris wipe at the end of the looney tunes.
fade: A fade is probably the most common transition in films, it suggests that something has finished, or is dramatic and intense.

  1. AHA! You need to reflect upon what you are learning when changing the narrative structure; so what happens when you start at No.4 and what affect does that have on the meaning? We will continue doing this next week so look to apply theories and an evaluation of your learning.
