Theories #3: Bordwell and Thompson’s (2001), Four categories of Film Editing:

SPACIAL

Concerns film space (setting and location) and relation between manipulation of different points through similiarity, difference and development/

  • Continuity editing produces analytical space via and establishing shot (extreme/long shot) followed by smaller range (mid) shots
  • The KuleshoveEffect: (No establishing shot) leads to the interference of a single locale, aspacial whole based on seeing only portions of the space.
    Audience will infer a connective relationship between shots or spatial coexistence
  • Crosscutting (parallel editing) can emphasise action taking place in seperate places
