What is Cinema

 Although I could not relate too much to this reading, I did find some comparisons very interesting. I notice the author compares a lot of sociology and psychology to Photography and Cinema.

What is Cinema

In all honesty, I could not follow this excerpt almost at all. My reading comprehension is already fairly bad, and reading this excerpt made me really confused because I had a hard time understanding what I was reading.

The editing process of this movie helped me understand more about cutting shots, because the majority of it is not actually cutting the shot, but instead deciding where to cut. Also, the shadow splices was interesting because it meant that for every cut they had changed their mind about it 15 times. The whole process shows the flexibility of editing and how a story can be made many ways depending on the editor. I had a few takeaways from this. First, that I am very glad we get to use technology to edit ...
