9ii) Spatial Editing

Define Spatial Editing: by the juxtaposition of one shot location shot to another, editing can be used to construct film space in any unimaginable way. This is known as spatial co existence.
Spatial co-existence gives a sense of space and place and allows the audience to know where objects are placed in relation to wach other.
For example in the Madonna 'Frozen' video there is a long shot showing the location aswell as the main protaganist, allowing the audience to spot the location aswell as the main protaganist.

  1. Remember editing this the link between two shots- Shot A and Shot B. The example you have here just shows one shot, which is good for cinematography, but not for editing. It attempts to create in the mind of the viewer where things are in space.

    You need to include another screen grab or video to illustrate this.

  2. Good explanation of the type of editing but needs a second shot to show the space.
