MAC 146 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Fast Cutting, Sergei Eisenstein, Establishing Shot
Document Summary
Doppler effect: closer the camera (and the audience) gets to an object, the louder the sounds gets: the farther, the softer. Sound bridge: the same sound or track plays throughout separate scenes: unites the scenes. Montage: series of images usually related by sound: editing technique in which you see a series of short shots that are edited into a sequence, song, voiceover, functions. American montage : pages of calendar flipping, cover of daily newspaper: how things progress over time. Create mood: sound is often critical to connecting the separate images. Jump cuts: jerky cuts: can display a specific mood, ex: nervousness of woman in king kong. Sergei eisenstein and other soviet filmmakers advocated this use of sound. Clash between image and sound involves viewers by asking them to think: modern sound theory. Match between image and sound heightens the viewer"s sense of onscreen reality.
