Quick Cuts

This post shows a video me and my partner Maxi made showcasing quick cuts. 

Quick cutting can be defined as a film editing technique which refers to several consecutive shots of a brief duration. It can be used to quickly convey much information, or to imply either energy or chaos. It can be used to portray boring tasks as energetic and exciting, which we've done in this example.


In the following video, you can see how we've used quick cuts to show our character arriving late to school. Overall, I think the video and edits effectively portray the panic the character feel and his efforts of trying to get to school on time. It also provides comedic effect in combination with the audio effects we chose to put it with. Something I feel we may have wanted to do differently though is to have more consistent lighting though, as some parts of the video felt too dark, while others felt very bright.
