Task 3- Developing Editing Techniques

Developing Editing Techniques

In camera editing is where you record something and when you want to change your camera angle you have to pause your video and when you get to the angle you want you have to then start to record again

With in camera editing we had created a table of pros and cons, first I will talk about the pros of in camera editing first. In camera editing you can save time when it comes down to editing out work that you don't wan to do so it is more time efficient then having to edit all of the time, because you have to do everything in the order that you want to view it in you have to more precise on the ideas that you have, you also take more time on planning it and are more considerate on it. Some of the cons that we had talked about was that you was unable to communicate with the people that you are working with, you also have to try and start the camera at the right time so that it doesn't look as if your actors are standing still and also if the person who is handling the camera does not know how to handle the camera then you would have a piece of film that isn't at the best quality as it could be showing the camera been moved when you look back at it.

The different shots that I think that we used was close up's, mid shots, long shots, and wide shots. The parts that I think that we had success in was the acting and the stage directions because i think that it was done reasonably well.

I think that we could have improved the timing where people started and stopped acting could have been done better and i could have also improved on the camera work.

I  think that i have improved on my film making skills because I think that I have more experience with working with the camera.

Finally i think that film makers moved on from having to edit things in the camera because they was no way that they could communicate with their actors so if they messed up then they would have to re shoot the whole scene, whereas now if they mess up one part then they can just edit it to correct the mistake that was made.
