Motel Scene

One rule that is quickly noticed throughout the scene is the constant rhythm that keeps the audience glued to the screen. The rhythm in this case draws the viewers eye’s as two character are getting closer to contact with one another, both having dire intentions. Each shot shows a character doing something that advances along with an eventual outcome. Through it were given the character’s reactions, and understanding of what there position is that gives the viewers the main idea who’s the cat and who’s the mouse in this situation.

I especially love the option to have no music and just let the editing and actions of the scene speak the story itself. In fact this whole movie has no music accompanying the scenes at all, it just rely’s on visual storytelling, camera angles, and of coarse, very fluent editing. Going back and forth between the protagonist and antagonist creates a sense of unease with each step they take towards each other.

This week from these exercises, I’ve learned the great impact editing techniques could have on a film. The rules applied make it serve a more adjusting purpose when telling a story. From these techniques were able to make film more entertaining and fun to look at.
