Summarize one of Pudovkin's techniques outlined in this video essay that interests you. How does it contribute to the storytelling in the modern movie clip that the narrator talks about? Why do you find this interesting?
The five editing techniques are contrast, parallelism, symbolism, simultaneity, and leit motif. Personally, my favorite editing technique are symbolism and leit motif. Symbolism has to be my top favorite. Why? Because it has meaning. The editing technique Symbolism, is when two shots come together with a connection. An example of this is when Marion Crane is murdered in Psycho, and her blood is pouring down the drain. This scene has a closeup shot of the drain, then afterwards, fades into Marion's eye, symbolizing her life "going down the drain."
