continuity; quicken
pace; heighten
tension.
when protagonist is
chased by the Villain
after leaves house.

out of the door in
long shot. I used a
long shot from the
pavement to see him
running away from
the house
Helps heighten action

DESATURATION
continuous
Indicates change
in time; the past;
flashback
Selected footage,
clicked on effects
etc
When protagonist
looks at the B&W
picture of the
child, after the
cross dissolve we
see child playing
in the park in
b&W
makes us feel it
was his memory
of the past so it
helped us tell the
audience about
our characters
