Terminology...

Composition:
The composition is the layout of an image or set made up of different parts. This includes where things are situated in the shot and rule of thirds. The composition is used to create certain effects.


Editing:
Editing is used to make sure the finished piece is clean and cut. You use editing to add effects to your film, cut out chunks of film that aren't very good or not needed and to generally bring your separate clips of film into one whole piece.


Sound:
Sound is used to create a range of effects and provoke emotions in the viewer. This could either be music and soundtracks or simple sound affects.

  • Diegetic sound: sound that other characters would be able to hear. A song on a radio for example.
  • Non-Diegetic sound: sound that characters in the film cannot hear. For example background music or sound effects.

  1. Good work Jos. If there is any more of the vocabulary you're unfamiliar with, then you need to make sure it's posted too.
