Some introductory tips for post-production of film and television

1. Look for the best expression and action in limited material.

2. The ability to cut materials and find their connection with the next picture.

3. Creativity in using images and choosing music to create melodies and plots.

4. The editor should also give the film a sense of jumping composed of continuous still pictures and inject life into the image.

5. The editor will naturally find the best expression in many shots and find out which point is the tangent point, which is the melody sense of the clip. At the same time, the whole picture of the work will be slowly presented in many photographic materials. Through the material, you can see what the work should look like.

Second, find the method of editing points

Where should I cut and connect? Finding the tangent point is undoubtedly one of the important tasks of editing, and it should be noted that this is the vertex of the picture. The so-called picture vertex means that the picture is the turning point of action and expression, such as the moment when the character's arm is fully extended, the moment when the bow action ends after nodding, the moment when the ball rises and is about to fall, and the moment when the smile is withdrawn.

The image is a series of still pictures, because the previous film will form afterimages in the human eye, so the pictures on the film look dynamic. Therefore, the more intense the action is, cutting at the top of the picture or at the moment before the action begins will have a strong afterimage effect on the film behind, leaving a deep impression on the audience.

Third, there is not only one correct method for film editing.

One thing I hope you don't misunderstand is that the cutting point is not unique. When the page turns to the middle, it can be used as a tangent point, and it can also be used as a tangent point at the end of the book turning action. According to the different works and the different pictures before and after, the tangent point can be changed, and the correct editing method is not unique.

Of course, editing also has its fixed forms and conventions, which can be said to be the rules of editing. It is important to know these rules, but editing itself is a creative job, so sometimes you will break the rules and make some new attempts.
