Week2 8/9/2015

This was the second lesson of having video editing.  In this lesson, professor taught us something about Montage Theory, and some important parts about it.  It is a new term and concept for me.  I learnt that cutting, editing and motivating are all about Montage Theory.  It has a big relationship with our editing job.

Metric, rhythmic, intellectual and tonal is the main part of Montage Theory.  Metric is when we cut on set number of frames for each shot transition.  Rhythmic represent that the speed of the cutting tools focus the movement through the frame.  Intellectual is a parallel cut.  Tonal is about is the emotional meaning of  the film or video maker have, that to design which and where to cut or form the video.

After that, the professor taught us something about camera shooting.  When we shot, we may decide how long, how big or small and how much should we shot. They are all about shot size.  It is the framing of the subject.

Although I am not a professional photo taker, I have interest in photo taking and editing.  Therefore, I will pay more attention in them.
