Planning Editing Styles - Miss Georgiou

Planning Editing Styles
I believe editing is important in a thriller film as the use of many different shots and the use of fast and slow editing can help to build and create suspense during a certain scene. Editing is used more often in thriller films as it builds tension very quickly with the use of slow editing, the use of different shots and cuts are also used to create elements of shock and surprise. 

I believe that the most used editing feature, in our film, would be the use of slow editing, jump cut or straight cut. I also believe that we will use more editing styles along with the features I have identified, this will also help to build tension within the film. The affect that this will have on the audience is that it will be build tension and also create a sense of mystery.

In my groups thriller film we look to use many editing features to make our film as scary and frightening as we can. By using certain editing styles it can help us create and build suspense for the audience, for example jump cuts, straight cuts and slow editing styles. Editing is a key part to a thriller, without it there would be no suspense built and there would be less tension for scary scenes. As I have already said, my group will look to use many editing styles to create the best film we can, I also believe by using the correct editing styles along with the correct scenes and type of music my group can create a great thriller film.

  1. This post demonstrates basic planning techniques and this is because you have not explored the editing styles of your thriller sequence in enough detail. You have only briefly described an overview and you have not related to your group narrative either, which makes this very basic.

    To develop this, you need to explore the purpose the editing styles will have in your thriller sequence, by focusing on the effect it will create, where it will take place and how it follows the codes and conventions of a thriller film.
