Theories 2: Vernallis

Carol Vernllis makes comparisons between Pop music videos and hollywood editing in her article 'The Kindest Cuts: Functions and meanings in music video editing'.

Pop Video Editing

1. Continuaty editing may govern small section but it doesn't relly mattter.

2. Camera and charaters move a lot to make it more dynamic.

3. Lots of angles used and loss of meaning to angles.

4. Time, characters and narrtive revealed incompletely.

Hollywood Editing

1. Continuaty editing throughout

2. Too much movement is busy and annoying

3. Less angles which have meaning

4. Use of time and space.



Her research shows me that music videos have elements of hollywood editing in them but something are used differently. It may be a good idea to watch some hollywood films to get ideas and inspiration for my music video.
