Description
1) Don’t Jump
Jumping occurs when consecutive shots of one subject change point of view. Beware if you are editing an interview, make sure to put in some b-roll in between shots of the interviewee when you cut out some of their dialogue. Otherwise, the video becomes very jarring for the audience.
2) Cut on Motion
This means that when changing from one shot to another, you as the editor should always try to cut from motion in the first shot. This makes the scene much smoother. Imagine the difference between cutting from a still train to an opening train door as opposed to a moving train cutting to an opening train door. The latter was much smoother.
3) Cut on Similar Elements
Cutting on motion and cutting on similar elements are great techniques for changing shots or scenes. Cutting on similar elements refers to cutting from similar looking objects or scenes between consecutive shots. For example, cutting from flowers in a garden to flowers in someone’s hair, cutting from one blue sky to the next, or cutting from a fan to helicopter blades. The focus of the shots doesn’t have to be the same, simply they must look alike.
4) Wipe
Wipes occur when the frame fills up with one element such as a person walking in front of the camera. Believe it or not, this can be a helpful transition between shots because it is not a clashing ch5) Match the Scene
A wonderful part of editing is that footage can be taken from separate times and put together to make a congruent scene. In order to make this congruent scene, you as the editor must match the scene’s setting, motion, and elements. To match the setting, you could take footage from the park from a month ago and pair it with footage taken the day before. To match motion, for example, if the subject was running from the left of the frame to the right, then the subject should reenter the frame on the left. To match the elements, imagine the footage from a month ago was a man walking in the part with a briefcase and a suit. The footage from the day before must have the man dressed in the same clothes with the same briefcase in his hands.ange for the audience.
6) B-Roll
Say you can’t match the scene or your footage is getting jumpy. That’s when inputting b-roll is very helpful. Always try to place b-roll in between shots that jump or don’t match the scene in order to minimize a jarring effect on the audience. B-roll is also helpful when breaking up a long and nondynamic scene.
7) 45*
If your scene utilizes multiple camera angles, you should always try to use shots that change the view on the subject by at least 45 degrees. This helps avoid a jumping effect.
8) Stay on 1 Plane & 180* Rule
Draw a line where your subject is. Imagine that is the X axis on a coordinate plane. You never want to cross that X axis because it would mess with the natural perspective for the audience.
9) Change Focal Lengths
Changing the focal lengths of your shots is helpful when shooting the same subject for extended periods of time: like at a wedding or an interview. If you have close up shots and wide shots, you as the editor can avoid jump cuts and also put certain shots out of order or shorten footage without it being noticeable.
10) Motivate your Shots
Make sure that every edit and every cut had a reason to be changed. You should always have a reason for switching from camera angle or shot to another. In a perfect world, that motivation will always be to enhance the production’s storytelling ability.
