Juxtaposition and Rhythm

This was time spent learning bout telling a story through editing, timing, and such like.

We watched a lot of films and dissected them. These are the some notes I took.
We also got to cut up some really nice footage made by the Grad Dips of earlier years but I can't post that as AFTRS owns the clips.

juxtaposition by...

• Association (French film 12 monkeys was based on)
• Collision (Battle ship Potemkin)
• Linkages (Out of Sight)
• Comparison (Anne hall)
• Metaphor
• Head space

Rhythm is...
time, space and energy; shaped into cycles of tension and release

emphasis in the change of pace in the transition

• flow
• energy
• pacing
• movement
• intent/emphasis
• beats speed up/slow down

Cycles of tension and release

three types of rhythm

• physical (meaningful rhythmic order
• emotional (psychological/emotional exchanges)
• event (release of new information/change of direction for character)
