Camera and Editing techniques in Stranger Things

For this task we were shown a video which show the editing and camera techniques used in Stranger Things. We were then asked to answer the following questions on the video:

Explain what you liked and why?
In the video from Stranger Things, I liked the quick cuts and the fast paced zoom shots as they created suspense within the narrative of the video. I also liked the blurred shots as they created the idea of a horror genre.


How it can/ will influence your music video ideas.
These ideas from Stranger Things will influence our music video as the camera and editing techniques helped demonstrate the genre and narrative of the video. The Stranger Things video also gave us ideas on what type of camera and editing techniques were effective and which ones worked well.


Explain how you can integrate any of the creative ideas into you music video.
In our music video we could use some of the camera techniques used in Stranger Things such as a close up to show a person's emotions and a tracking shot to create the idea of a person being followed. We could also use some of the editing techniques such as an eye line match to show what someone is looking at and quick cuts to create the effect that time is going by fast.


Explain and evaluate how this will improve your music video and your creativity?
This will improve our music video and creativity as we can use these camera and editing techinques in our music video in order to create a more interesting and eye catching narrative. The camera and editing techniques will also help us to highlight certain parts of our music video which we would like to emphasise in order to show their importance to the narrative of our video.
