1. IMPACT OF EDITING Mitchell Waters

2. TIME LINE  Lumiere Brothers were the pioneers of the moving image production.  Georges Melies revolutionized film by inventing a basic editing technique the jump cut.  Edwin.S.Potter brought temporal overlaps to film which is when you film the scene from to point. This technique was used in many of his films.  D.W.Griffith made the first block buster

3. GEORGES MÉLIÈS  Georges Méliès at the beginning of his career he was a French illusionist but then took inspiration from the “Lumière Brothers” and then went into film.  Georges Méliès created the jump cut by accident and made it look like a bus turned into hearse and revolutionised editing forever.  He then used this technique in the first ever film “Trip to The Moon” which was made in 1902.  Also in the Movie “Hugo” you really see how film effected him and how much of an impact it had on people.

4. LINEAR & NON-LINEAR EDITING  Linear video editing is a video editing post-production process of selecting, arranging and modifying images and sound in a predetermined, ordered sequence.[1] Regardless of whether it was captured by a video camera, tapeless camcorder, or recorded in a television studio on a video tape recorder  Non-linear editing for films and television postproduction is a modern editing method which enables direct access to any frame in a digital video clip, without needing to play through the footage

5. EXAMPLES OF TECHNIQUES USED BY THE PIONEERS  Jump cut - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zel0Gq0MmZ4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zel0Gq0MmZ4  Fades - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bup_zehvBohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bup_zehvBo  Cutting- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LXQg6t4q2Ahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LXQg6t4q2A  Eye matching – is when no matter what camera angle is being used my eyes will always be on the subject to keep continuity.  reverse shot – the reverse shot is when two people are having a conversation and there is a close up of the person speaking. Most of these techniques work with the concept of continuity

6. CONCLUSION  I think editing is important because it make the movie flow and helps you understand what its about and what's happening. If Méliès didn’t don’t create the first editing technique then we would not have the blockbuster movies that we have today.  The site I used was : http://www.mediacollege.com/video/editing/linear/linear-vs- nonlinear.html http://www.mediacollege.com/video/editing/linear/linear-vs- nonlinear.html
