FIVE MASTER EDITS VIDEO


        The link to our video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFgE6NAsQa4&feature=youtu.be

        The first master edit that kelly and I did was contrast. The first scene showed a bird flying quickly in the air, and the next one showed me sitting on the ground, bored. The first scene represents having fun and being free, while the other shows boredom, and confinement. This shows contrast because these are two completely different "feelings", or scenes.
        The second master edit we recorded was symbolism. For the first scene I slowly walked down nation's square and recorded all of the flags on the ceiling. Then, I zoomed in on the American flag. For the next scene, we started out zoomed in, then zoomed out to reveal a huge map. We zoomed out from the United States. This shows symbolism because we went from the American flag in nation's square, to a map of the United States in a different building.
        The third master edit we recorded was simultaneity. The scenes we alternated between were a decently quiet classroom where everybody was sitting down, and a loud courtyard where everybody was moving around. This shows two things going on at the same time in different places. Having a classroom and a courtyard emphasizes the difference between the two scenes.
        The fourth master edit we focused on was parallelism. For this edit, I recorded Kelly putting the hood of her hoodie on and turning to face away from the camera. Then, I put on Kelly's hoodie, stood in the same place that she was standing, and put the hood up. Then Kelly recorded me turning around to face the audience and taking the hood off. This shows parallelism because similar, but not the same exact scenes are used to transition to one another. By using the hoodie we flowed from Kelly to me, and changed scenes completely by just using a similar object.
        The fifth and final master edit we recorded was Leitmotif. The first scene was my pet lizard sitting there not moving. The second one was Kelly fighting the trojan statue in the courtyard. We alternated between these scenes a couples times. This is supposed to show what is going on in the lizards head.
