Classwork: Editing Practice

This blog post contains the work I did in my lesson on how to successfully edit. Mr. Nick filmed the footage but I edited them together on using my laptop on Capcut. Mr. Nick also made it easier for us by providing a template for this blog.


The importance of continuity editing𓇒𓆸𓏲𓇬𑁍

Continuity editing includes making sure that items like props or costumes stay consistent from scene to scene. But the more important work lies in editing shots together in a way that leaves viewers thoroughly grounded in both time and space.


Types of continuity editing

  • Straight cut (cut)
  • Eye line match
  • Shot/reverse shot
  • Cutaway/insert
  • Match cut
Footage❀˖ °❀

Here is the footage that my teacher shot which utilizes a variety of camera angles and movements. The scene is very simple, it involves a student standing up and leaving the classroom. A single shot here might be quite boring for the audience, by editing and combining the shots together we can make the scene feel more dynamic.
