Montage
Editing
This
type of editing doesn’t have to tell a story but can be used to convey a
character’s emotions/thoughts and show them to an audience. Montages are
usually a lot of random clips edited together to give a certain impact.
An
example of this type of editing is:
This
is a very good example as it shows how powerful music within a montage can
affect the mood and atmosphere of a montage. In this example the music is very
motivating and gets the audience pumped up. It also fits the video footage of
people working out.
The
montage also cleverly shows the difference between nature and technology. The
fast shots between the two tells the audience that the two people training are
serious about what they do and that they are willing to do anything. The music
helps with this.
A
technique used in the montage is a match cut. This is where an action shown in
the footage changes quickly to a similar piece of action to represent two
similar but different pieces of training activities. This is affective as it
shows the similarity between clips so the audience can piece together what's
happening in the montage themselves.
