 In-camera editing (km)

This is a film making and video production technique of shooting shots in the exact sequence that they will be seen on the cinema screen or a television programme. This means you have to plan in advance what shots will tell the desired story and then shooting shots only in that order.

 Following the action (km)

The technique following the action is where the camera follows in event that is taking place. Instead of the camera staying at one angle the camera follows the action around to show you more of the action.

 Multiple points of view (km)

Multiple points of view is where you get each character showing there point of view. This is where the character will show what he/she is doing then will switch to another character.

 Shot variation (sh)

Using different shots within a scene makes it more interesting for the audience. With different shots you can see the characters, environments or events from different angles.

 Manipulation of diegetic time and space (km)

Manipulation of diegetic time and space in where a person the environment or an object is changing over a period of time, this could make it appear older or younger.

In this video you see the two main characters go back in time, around them you see everyone moving and changing while the two charaters stay the same. 

Film (sh)

Film over many years has gone from simple moving images to animation and visual effects. In early films there were no sound a side from the music played by live musicians. The picture was in black and white, and lasted not as long as the films today. In the 1860s there were mechanisms that were invented called a zoetrope, a mutoscope and a praxinoscope. These mechanisms made still images look as if they were moving when placed in a certain way.

In 1880 the first motion picture camera that could capture images and store them in a single reel. In the early 1900's cinema became very popular, but was put on hold due to the first world war. In the 1920 new technology was introduced making film makers be able to put sound or music in their films. They were called talking pictures. Around 1960s 'natural colour' films were slowly introduced.
Films today are coloured and digital technology has changed the film industry dramatically. 3D has been introduced in the last few years making cinema more enjoyable.

Video (sh)

A video is a captured image sequence representing motion. Video can hold information such as frame rate, apspect ratio and sound. In 1951 the first video tape recorded the first piece of footage.

Analogue (km)

Analogue in film is when its exposed to light, plastic-based film creates an "analog" of the actual scene. Analogue is film that stored of a video.

Digital (sh)

Digital is the process in which an image is captured as digital image. Digital is a higher quality than analogue and can be edited on a computer.
