Evaluation, Question One - Conventions, Themes of the Genre

Although in our video we follow a narrative, one of the main editing techniques used was the idea of montage editing – following a non chronological timeline in our video. Whilst it is clear there is some sort of narrative, the ideas and themes are usually not in a chronological order. The idea of montage editing is emphasised through our use of effects, creating a sense of unease for the audience, particularly through our use of the Final Cut effect “Bad TV” as seen in the instrumental section, as it could add a sense of mystery for the audience and also links in with the aggressive nature of our drum n’ bass genre.
