Refimprove date December 2009 In film technique film , reframing is a change in camera angle without a cut and can including changing the focus of the scene. The term has been more often used in film criticism than in actual cinema. Critics of the technique include Andr Bazin among others.

mergefrom Lap dissolve date February 2010 Image A2o dissolve.ogg thumb 300px A dissolve transition between two still images In film editing , a dissolve is a gradual transition from one image to another. In film , this effect is created by controlled double exposure from frame to frame transitioning from the end of one clip to the beginning of another. In linear video editing video editing or live video production, the same effect is created by interpolating voltages of the video signal. In non linear video editing , a dissolve is done in software, by interpolating gradually between the RGB values of each pixel of the image. The audio track optionally cross fades between the clips. A dissolve effectively overlaps two clips for the duration of the effect. The lengths of the two scenes can be adjusted by trimming, which, if desired, can change the original durations of the scenes before the dissolve was added. The cut and the dissolve are used differently. A camera cut changes the perspective from which a scene is portrayed. It is as if the viewer suddenly and instantly moved to a different place, and could see the scene from another angle. Obvious hard cuts may startle the viewer. For that reason, a dissolve is often used in continuity editing to soften up jump cut s or similar cuts.

distinguish Pay to Play In filmmaking , a guarantee is a term of an actor or director s contract that guarantees remuneration if, through no fault of their own, the artist is released from the contract. Such an arrangement is known informally as a play or pay contract . Many stars insist on guarantees in their contract due to the major time commitment agreeing to appear in a film can mean. For example, Kurt Russell s decision to appear in the film Soldier film Soldier , for which he was paid 15 million, was a total commitment of 18 months, during which time he was not able to appear in another film. If the film were cancelled, or if he were replaced but not if he withdrew of his own accord , Russell would be paid 15 million, or a large part of that fee, to compensate him for clearing his schedule. Studios are reluctant to agree to guarantees but accept them as part of the deal for signing major talent. They also have the advantage of enabling a studio to simply remove a player under such a contract with few legal complications. Examples of Play or Pay Unreferenced section date December 2007 When a writer s strike halted all production at Warner Bros.

It is what grabs the viewer s attention, preferably in the first 5 10 minutes, as a reader might expect to find a literary Narrative hook hook in the first chapter of a novel. During the Pitch filmmaking pitch process, a screenwriter will use a hook to help prove the bankable quality of her or his screenplay. ref http www.craftyscreenwriting.com hook.html ref Knowing the importance of a good hook, many screenwriters write their hooks first. Conceivably, the life of a screenplay might evolve from hook to 1 page synopsis, to 4 page treatment, to full Film treatment treatment , to scriptment , to screenplay. One can briefly state a good hook in one or two sentences, introducing the protagonist, the conflict that drives the story, and what the protagonist will achieve with either triumph or defeat. The hook is the viewer s own question of whether the conflict can be resolved, so a screenwriter might want to test his or her hook by turning it into a question. For example, Johnny must catch the murderer so that he can get the girl might become Will Johnny catch the murderer? Or will he lose the girl? ref http www.scriptfly.com sceneanalysis index.shtml ref In this way, the screenwriter can use the hook as a tool as he or she writes the screenplay.
