Editing styles.

After the filming process we moved on to the editing stage in which we had all collaborated to come up with the editing styles that we felt were most important to include in our video. 

One of these styles was continuity editing which is a style of editing in which the shots are put together to make chronological sense. We decided to use this style as we felt is it was the best way to show our story and therefore convey our concept easier. This technique is has been used throughout the whole video as it is a story and must make sense as it needs to be followed by its audience. 

Another editing style that we decided to use was quick cuts or fast pace editing. This envolves putting shots together but in quick succession to create a fast paced feel to the video. This links in with our genre of music and helps to create a chaotic and energetic feel to the film. This technique will be used during the build up to choruses within our song. 

The final editing style that we used was the montage technique which involves incorporating many shots and putting them together to tell short stores and show flashbacks or memories within the story. This style occurs two times nearer to the middle of the video to show the character having memories.

  1. You have made a start in describing the different editing styles that you wish to include within your music video. But you need to provide further examples and detail to explain how the styles will benefit your production.
