Narrative; more ideas.

After much deliberation, we decided on a filming style for the narrative shots. The stye we have chosen is that of the Resevoir Dogs walking scene; a scene that has created and embodies the connotations of the modern gangster film.

Preliminary editing of performance shots for Bacalao music video


Editing is a skill that is needed in media settings; the skills and techniques involved in editing would give the viewer a deeper insight into the media piece, and would highlight the potential viewpoints and skill of the director. The use of fast-paced editing could evoke a feeling of action, and similarly a relaxed editing tempo would make the audience feel relaxed; these are media conventions that, when followed, can influence the viewer. Editing is a skill that is needed in media settings; the skills and techniques involved in editing would give the viewer a deeper insight into the media piece, and would highlight the potential viewpoints and skill of the director.
