Editing is a part of post-production in creating a video or a film. It is the important part to create a sequence. On the production phase, the scene of the film were taken one by one but it not taken accordingly, it is editor's job to combine this scene together to make this film accordingly as shown in storyboard and script.

Ron Howard’s, The Missing, is a Western about a medicine woman who works with her estranged father to save her daughter, who has been kidnapped by an Apache brujo.

This essay will discuss the uses, strategies and the meanings that are generated by editing in cinema. The films that this essay will be focusing on are Psycho and Singin’ in the Rain.

The Shawshank Redemption is a cinematographic film that was directed by Frank Darabont and released in the year 1994. The film takes into prospect and delves into a contagious view of hope, and how it is considered one of the strongest influences there are. Ellis Boyd Redding, a dynamic protagonist in The Shawshank Redemption once said that hope “is a dangerous thing.” The values placed in hope shape the belief in that one day the incarcerated heroes would leave the prison and return to an adjusted society. Hope can inspire, and deliver a message to shape the perspective of an individual being; societies, collectives and individuals look towards a brighter path of fate--a destiny that could one day become a reality. The rock hammer for example, was an item that was forged with false hope and humour that was procured in the beginning of the film by Red, as a

“I believe whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you stranger” (The Dark Knight, 2008), this is the stand out sentence that the main antagonist, The Joker (Heath Ledger) speaks in the opening scene of the movie.

Mildred Pierce” meets many on the list of criteria to be deemed Film Noir genre. For instance, the schematics of the film are the basic black and white, which suits the time period of 1934. There was a strong usage of shadow photography that was used prominent throughout the film. Crime and suspense are the subgenre, which is another defining characteristic. Flashbacks were used sporadically to give reference to transpiring events of the murder. The third person narration, contributed to an unbiased perspective of what and how the events occurred. The banter was expressed a great deal of times between Mildred and Veda, as well as Mildred and her husband. The banter ranged from short, calm and collected to complete physical contact. The Femme Fatale was represented by the character Veda. She was the innocent sweetheart initially, but had an alter ego as a murderer. Veda was misconceiving to both Mildred and Monte, and as she aged became an opportunist. During the investigation of the murder, she would rather use her mother as a scapegoat, instead of taking the responsibility for her actions. Her mother gave her everything she desired, but still she wanted more. A prime example is when she faked her pregnancy to scam money from her “husband”. Veda was merely concerned about money, and how to obtain more of it. Money was her sense of happiness, and contributed to power.

I now do a lot of multitasking in the office which helps me get the quick and easy things out of the way.

Baz Luhrmann is widely acknowledged for his Red Curtain Trilogy which are films aimed at heightening an artificial nature and for engaging the audience. Through an examination of the films Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge and The Great Gatsby, the evolution and adaptation of his techniques become evident. Luhrmann’s belief in a ‘theatrical cinema’ can be observed to varying degrees through the three films and his choice to employ cinematic techniques such as self-reflexivity, pastiche and hyperbolic hyperbole.

Baz Luhrmann’s films are known their ability to make a watcher feel as if they are part of the show.
