Video Editing Techniques
-180 degree rule, cinematography guideline that states that two characters in a scene should maintain the same left/right relationship to eachother. When the camera passes over the invisible axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line and the shot becomes what is called a reverse angle.

 -Types of shot ( close up, long shot etc.)
extreme wide shot , the view is so far from the subject isn’t even visible.
Very wide shot, the subject is barley visible.
Wide shot, subject takes up full frame.
mid shot, shows some part of the subject in more detail while giving an impression of the whole subject.
Medium close up, half way between mid shot and close up.
Close up, a certain feature or part of the subject takes up the whole frame.
Extreme close up, shows extreme detail
Cut in, shows some other part of the subject in detail
Cutaway, a show of something other than the subject
Two shot , a shot of two people framed similarly to a mid shot.
Over the shoulder shot, looking from behind a person at the subject
Point of view shot, shows a view from a subjects perspective.

Weather shot, the subject is the weather, can be used for other purposes e.g background for graphics.

Parallel Editing-   Parallel editing which is also refereed to as cross cutting is the technique of alternating two or more scenes that often happen simultaneously but in different locations. If the scenes are simultaneous they occasionally come together in a single place where the relevant parties confront each other.

Types Of Transitions-
Cut: The most common transition an instant change from one shot to the next. The footage from the camera contains cuts between shots where you stop and start recording.
Crossfade: A gradual fade from one shot to the next. Crossfades have a more relaxed feel than a cut. Scenary sequences work well with crossfades. Crossfades can also convey a sense of passing time or changing location.
Fade: This fades the shot to a single colour, usually black or white. The fade to black and fade from black are always found in a film and television. They usually show the beginning and ending of scenes. Fades can be used between shots to create a sort of crossfade.
Wipe: One shot is progressively replaced by another shot. There are many times of Wipe from straight lines to complex shapes. Wipe transitions often have a coloured boarder to help distinguish the shots during the transition. These are also a good way to show a champing location.

History Of Video Editing

The Lumiere Brothers were French inventors and pioneer manufactures of photographic equipment. 

In 1895 the Lumiere Brothers invented Cinematography. Cinematography recorded, captured and projected motion picture. Even though the Lumiere Brothers had a great invention Edwin S Porter showed them that film didn’t have to be one long still image in 1901. 

McDougall, Julian, 2012. OCR Media Studies for AS. 3rd ed. Italy: Hodder Education. 

In 1908 D.W. Griffiths film " For Love Of Gold" featured the first ever continuity cut when a scene was cut. Griffiths then realised that emotions could be be portrayed through different camera angles instead of it all being down to the actors. 
    The discovery of the Kuleshov effect was Soviet director and film therapist Lev Kuleshov. The Kuleshov effect was a montage effect on the film which Lev believed would get the audience to respond more.
