Fast Slow Sequence Experiment

For a prelimanary task our group made two film sequences and had to edit them to one fast piece of music and one slow. The person in the film could not move in the frame so we had to think more about our shots and how we would edit them together.The main thing we learnt from the task was editing in time to the beat.At first we editied and realised some of the movements within the frame were off and it does make a difference.We had to listen to the beat again and again to get a feel for how we would edit.We also learnt how important framing was,and that everything in the frame must be of siginificance and meaning because it has an impact on the overalll meaning.Finally I think we learnt that when filming the camera doesnt have to be moving all over the place,but if we make the angle and the mis en scene in the shot interesting,having a static shot can be just as engaging as if the camera was moving.
