*Continuity
*Cutting (aka editing)
*Close ups
*Composition
When telling the audience where the film is set you use a LONG SHOT. This lets you show all the important info.
A MEDIUM SHOT is the most commonly used shot in cinema. It is used to show any character interaction.
You use a CLOSE A UP when there is something/someone important to show the audience.
Continuity - Generally refers to visual errors. In very basic terms it means having a character in a red top one second, then a blue top in the next.
Cutting/ editing - Essential otherwise films would be in real time & never end. It allows a director to change locations. Main use is to either add pace to a scene to make it exciting or to slow it down for dramatic emphasis.
Composition - The act and process of the work
