The Space of Editing: Playing with Difference in Art, Film and Writing The space of editing: playing with difference in art, film and writing Grant Stevens Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) (QUT) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2007 Visual Arts Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology ii Abstract This research project explores the creative and critical functions of editing in art, film and writing. The written component analyses the histories and discourses of ‘cutting and splicing’ to examine their various roles in processes of signification. The artistic practice uses more speculative and open-ended methods to explore the social ‘languages’ that inform our inter-subjective experiences. This project argues that editing is a creative methodology for making meaning, because it allows existing symbolic systems to be appropriated, revised and rewritten. By emphasising the operations of spacing, questioning and play, it also identifies editing as an essential tool for critically engaging with the potentials of art and theory. iii Keywords art;

  • The General Idea Behind Editing in Narrative Film Is the Coordination of One Shot with Another in Order to Create a Coherent, Artistically Pleasing, Meaningful Whole
    Chapter 4: Editing Film 125: The Textbook © Lynne Lerych The general idea behind editing in narrative film is the coordination of one shot with another in order to create a coherent, artistically pleasing, meaningful whole. The system of editing employed in narrative film is called continuity editing – its purpose is to create and provide efficient, functional transitions. Sounds simple enough, right?1 Yeah, no. It’s not really that simple. These three desired qualities of narrative film editing – coherence, artistry, and meaning – are not easy to achieve, especially when you consider what the film editor begins with. The typical shooting phase of a typical two-hour narrative feature film lasts about eight weeks. During that time, the cinematography team may record anywhere from 20 or 30 hours of film on the relatively low end – up to the 240 hours of film that James Cameron and his cinematographer, Russell Carpenter, shot for Titanic – which eventually weighed in at 3 hours and 14 minutes by the time it reached theatres. Most filmmakers will shoot somewhere in between these extremes. No matter how you look at it, though, the editor knows from the outset that in all likelihood less than ten percent of the film shot will make its way into the final product. As if the sheer weight of the available footage weren’t enough, there is the reality that most scenes in feature films are shot out of sequence – in other words, they are typically shot in neither the chronological order of the story nor the temporal order of the film.

Berg Thomas G. Schatz A Study of Hypernarrative in Fiction Film: Alternative Narrative in American Film (1989−2012) by Taehyun Cho, B.A. Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2014 Dedication To my family who teaches me love. Acknowledgements I would like to give special thanks to my advisor, Professor Berg, for his intellectual guidance and warm support throughout my graduate years. I am also grateful to my thesis committee, Professor Schatz, for providing professional insights as a scholar to advance my work. v Abstract A Study of Hypernarrative in Fiction Film: Alternative Narrative in American Film (1989-2012) Taehyun Cho, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2014 Supervisor: Charles R. Berg Although many scholars attempted to define and categorize alternative narratives, a new trend in narrative that has proliferated at the turn of the 21st century, there is no consensus. To understand recent alternative narrative films more comprehensively, another approach using a new perspective may be required. This study used hypertextuality as a new criterion to examine the strategies of alternative narratives, as well as the hypernarrative structure and characteristics in alternative narratives. Using the six types of linkage patterns (linear, hierarchy, hypercube, directed acyclic graph, clumped, and arbitrary links), this study analyzed six recent American fiction films (between 1989 and 2012) that best represent each linkage pattern.

  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

  • Screening Series for 'Walkers: Hollywood
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SCREENING SERIES FOR ‘WALKERS: HOLLYWOOD AFTERLIVES IN ART AND ARTIFACT’ TO FEATURE CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD FILMS Exhibition artists Pierre Bismuth, Tom Sachs, and Guy Maddin to appear in person with select screenings and artist talks November 8–December 27, 2015 at Museum of the Moving Image Astoria, New York, October 22, 2015—Museum of the Moving Image is pleased to announce “The Hollywood Classics behind Walkers,” a screening series presented in conjunction with the exhibition Walkers: Hollywood Afterlives in Art and Artifact, the Museum’s first major contemporary art survey. Through the work of 45 artists in painting, photography, sculpture, print, and video, Walkers examines the lasting impact of 20th-century film on culture, and the ability of its imagery to be recycled and reinvented by artists. Exhibition curator Robert M. Rubin has paired these artworks with a selection of rare movie ephemera including scripts, set photos, and costume design sketches, that when viewed through a 21st-century lens, serve as works of art in their own right. As an extension of the exhibition, “The Hollywood Classics behind Walkers” series provides audiences the opportunity to see legendary Hollywood films on the big screen alongside the artworks they have inspired, as well as independent films that bridge the gap between Hollywood film and our greater understanding of “Hollywood.” Museum of the Moving Image Chief Curator David Schwartz and Rubin have selected a program of films significant to the exhibition, with selected screenings featuring conversations with artists Tom Sachs (with The Godfather) and Pierre Bismuth (with Be Kind Rewind); and filmmaker and artist Guy Maddin in person with The Forbidden Room.

  • EDITING TECHNIQUES for FILM the Editing Process
    EDITING TECHNIQUES FOR FILM The Editing Process Shots are edited together to create scenes. Scenes can be edited together to tell a story. Editing Many regard it as the single most important creative step in determining the look an shape of the finished film Dede Allen - BONNIE AND CLYDE, REDS A good editor can save a poorly directed film A bad editor can damage the work of even the finest director Thelma Schoonmaker - RAGING BULL, THE DEPARTED Watching a film is like putting together a puzzle… Overall picture emerges when all the little pieces have been fit together Each piece is a shot When put together properly, the viewer sees the whole picture and not just the pieces Lev Kuleshov Kuleshov said that editing a film was like constructing a building. Brick-by-brick (shot- by-shot) the building (film) is erected. Just as two images joined together form a third meaning not inherent in either of the two images alone… …the way the many images making up a film are put together creates a meaning not inherent in the individual shots Viewers infer meaning based on context. The viewers didn't realize it, but the emotion and the story they felt were the result of the human need to fill in the blanks. Sample of EditingTechniques 1. Master 2. Match cut 3.
