Description
Editing and Special/Visual Effects brings together a diverse range of film scholars to explore how editing and visual effects have evolved in tandem. From the early silent era's "trick films" that astounded audiences with spliced-in or edited-out key frames, to cutting-edge effects technologies and concealed edits used in contemporary blockbusters, this book provides a rich historical overview of these two crafts. Readers will learn about various filmmaking techniques, including classic Hollywood's rear projection and matte shots, as well as fast cuts and wall-to-wall CGI. The authors also examine the impact of changes in the film industry on editing and visual effects, highlighting the role of artistic collaboration in both crafts. By exploring these twinned crafts, readers will gain a new appreciation for the processes involved. This book supplies multiple perspectives on editing and special/visual effects, introducing readers to the analog and digital tools used in each craft.
