For my fade example, me and my group filmed a clip a section of people’s faces and used the dissolve to morph there faces into one another. The close ups of the people is to show the similarities between different people and show that even though they all have different lives, they are still all the same.
In my film i’ve used cross cutting by joining a clip of an interrogation and a clip of someone running. As the clip goes on the speed of the cutting gets faster, this creates The audience thinks that the person running is going to become connected to the interrogation scene. For example the audience may believe that the person running is going to come a save to man being interrogated or that the person running is the man later escaping. Their ideas will change when the man being interrogated gets shot, which is when the audience really starts to question, who’s running? and why? The big revelation is that the man running looks exactly the same as the man that gets shot. This also develops a character arc as in the end the woman was right to question weather it was the same guy that stole the drugs, as in the end they shot the wrong guy.
