(41) Wh-what do you mean!? REALLY?! Feature Lead Practice 1

 

Hey guys we back it again, today we are going to be practicing making a feature lead for our double page spread in our magazine. So basically I'm going to be telling little stories for practice, I suppose it will be pretty entertaining, obviously the lead is meant to catch attention.

So naturally I'm going to make mine crazy and literally insane, it will be a narrative.
Lets start.

Story: 
Some fat dude robbed McDonald's for cheeseburgers

Lead:
It was a dark stormy day at McDonald's, John the cashier was being overworked and underpaid as usual when suddenly a customer came through the drive thru, it was 3 am. John was naturally pissed off as he had been doing a double shift, when he finished taking the customer's order he told him come to the window. The night was deep and fog was rolling in from the humidity in the air, it really sucked for John. The customer suddenly when at the window asked John if he could add something to his order. John replied with an agitated tone, WE DONT ADD AT THE WINDOW. The customer told John, you don't even know what I wanted yet. John said fine, what do you want? Just give me your name for the order, I forgot to ask last time. The customer then said, sure my name is Rob-ROBBING YOU! He then pulled out a gun and said, I think I'll have everything in the register, NOW. John quickly complied, and just like that he had been robbed...


Alright guys welp I hope you enjoyed that lead, if it kept you at the edge of your seat and wanting to read more, then I've done my job wonderfully, I'll practice some more later and share them with you guys, until then, later...

Thanks for reading!

(18) Editing, numero dos

  Oh you're still here? Huh...hmm oh yeah, almost forgot... realmente tengo que trabajar otra vez... I mean WELCOME BACK GUYS!!! LETS GET STARTED ON ANOTHER BLOG, OH YEAH!!  Alright enough with that, lets get down to business, today I'm going to be covering the second half of the content I promised you on editing, so lets list these terms firstly. These terms are jump cut, crosscutting, parallel editing, cutaway, and insert, not as many as before, but still just as important, lets begin... Jump Cut: Jump cut is when two sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions that vary only slightly if at all. This type of edit gives the effect of jumping forwards in time. It is a manipulation of temporal space using the duration of a single shot and fracturing the duration to move the audience ahead. This kind of cut abruptly communicates the passing of time.​ For example in the image above you see the kid looking forward, but then immediately in the next shot he ...
