  I chose the opening scene from Rear Window by Alfred Hitchcock. In this scene, Jeff is stuck in his apartment and starts watching the neighbours across the courtyard. Nothing dramatic happens yet, but it already builds tension and interest. Hitchcock shows how much you can do with editing, camera work, and mise-en-scène, even in a simple scene. The editing is mainly continuity editing . Each shot follows the last so it is easy to understand where everyone is in the courtyard. When Jeff looks out of his window, the next shot shows what he sees across the courtyard. This helps the audience feel like they are looking at the neighbours with him and seeing the same things he does. The cuts are mostly straight cuts . They are simple and smooth so the audience stays focused on what Jeff is observing rather than the editing itself. The pace of the editing is slow, which is important for creating suspense. Some shots of the courtyard last several seconds. This gives the audience tim...

1)  For my preliminary exercise, I will be working in a pair. The scene will be filmed in a quiet room with a door and two chairs placed opposite each other. One character will already be seated, while the other enters the room through the door, walks across the room and sits down. After sitting, the two characters will exchange a short piece of dialogue. This setup allows us to clearly demonstrate continuity editing techniques. 2)  INT. ROOM – DAY CHARACTER B is sitting on a chair, waiting. The DOOR HANDLE turns and the door opens. CHARACTER A enters the room, walks across and sits down opposite CHARACTER B. They look at each other. CHARACTER A Hi. CHARACTER B Nice to meet you. They sit in silence for a moment. 3) Close-up of door handle turning Medium shot of character opening the door Wide shot of character entering the room Medium shot of character walking across the room Medium shot of character sitting down (match on action) Over-the-shoulder shot of Character B speaking...

  1)The opening of stranger things uses very dark lighting and lots of shadows to make the scene feel very tense.There are close up shots of the scientists face to show he is scared and wide shots of the empty hallways to show how alone he is.Some high angle shots make him feel small and the camera follows him as he runs through the building.When things get more dangerous,the camera gets a bit more shaky and that makes the movement feel rushed and stressed 2)The dark hallways and strange lab equipment tells us the setting is a secret and might be an dangerous place.The fast camera movemets and quick cuts hint something is chasing the scientist and giving us clues about the narrative.The close ups on his face show he is nervous and not in control and the high angle shots make him feel worried 3)The image is a long shot from a eye sight angle.The long shot shows the whole space and makes the hallway look empty and tense.The eye level angle keeps the scene realistic but ...

From there, it moves into the gaming setup—showing it from above and below, then getting closer and closer to the PC. You’ll see tight shots of the details, along with a smooth tilt, pan, and zoom around the setup. It finishes with a clean medium close-up of the whole setup. https://youtu.be/r2MYnSX3J2M?si=qjJKjtZ2KanLthJA
