Montage

I have been researching the Kuleshov Effect and I am very intrigued by it. I have created some footage exploring this type of editing.

This footage shows a women waiting and then the clip changes to a man walking holding a book. The audience immediately link the two scenes together and think the women is waiting for the man. If the clip of the man was of a bus, the audience would then think the women is waiting for the bus.



With this shot I have explored metric montage. Each shot last for 1 frame. Each clip has been joined together with the same length.

Exploring continuity editing

The video above displays continuity editing where as the video below does not. 




The first type of continuity editing that I am going to look at is graphic continuity. This is where shots that are similar join together. I believe this type of continuity would be very effective.










I have explored rhythmic continuity in the video below.
