Basic Codes and Conventions: The Editing Techniques

Editing is the final part of creating a music video and there are specific editing techniques that are used in almost all of the music videos out there.

Jump-Cutting:  Including extra shots (often close ups) to transition from one scene to the next OR to emphasize an action or lyric in the song

CGI Effects: Chroma keying out shots to include specific background scenes adding CGI- Computer Generated Images- to create specific moods or effects

Parallel Editing: Method of cutting between a couple of scenes or stories that are happening at the same time

Sound Editing: Timing the video with the music and adding nondiegetic sound

Colorize/Stylize: Create a specific mood or genre by altering the overall color of the video
