RTV-3001 Lecture Notes - Lecture 19: Continuity Editing, Long Shot, Motion Vector
Document Summary
Selecting and sequencing the parts of an event that will clarify and intensify the event best. Instantaneous editing or switching selecting or sequencing of shots while the televised event is under way. Postproduction editing very deliberate choices are made after shooting has taken place. Continuity editing concentrates on structuring on and off screen space and on establishing and maintaining the viewers mental map. The mental map is essentially a picture of the entire setting in your head, whether all of it is on screen or not. Continuity is a consistent and unobtrusive progression from shot to shot in terms of screen direction, lighting, props, audio, and other production details. Continuity editing is mainly concerned with clarification of an vent. Graphic vectors are weak but still to be considered. In outdoor scene, keep horizon at the same level r screen height throughout the scene. Keep it consistent unless you move the camera to a new perspective shot.
