The Cutting Edge Documentary



I just finished watching the documentary, which we will be watching next week as part of our cutting edge series for unit 04, As we all are going to see, some for the second time, it deconstructs the film scenes, and explains the important role of a editor, that to date I have to admit I wasnt familiar with.
This documentary will change the way you look into film scenes or shots, as it explains many different techniques presented by American Cinema, French Cinema, German and Russian. it is just a eye opener, and helps to understand how a shot is exhaustively manipulated to appeal the audience.

I would argue the pre production of the film alonside with the screenplay writing as the guide of the film, the directors role as the happening of the shots and ultimately the editing as a crucial work done to produce a more appealling as well dynamic film.
