EDITING: examples of editing techniques

Examples of editing techniques 

In Mickybo and Me the editing into 

the first shot is very smooth as it 

cross-fades in. Also half of the titles

 are with a black background and the

 other half with the film playing. This 

creates narrative enigma and also 

creates tension.

The first shot we see cuts into the film in24 seconds. The camera angle is slightly 

dutch which signifies something isn't right which also connotes with the mise-en

 scene of a rifle that there is some idiocy involved with this character. The low resolution 

of the shot also denotes that a hand held camcorder is being used; the dutch angle 

also exaggerates this.
