Ellipsis

Ellipsis example




Ellipsis is both a narrative device and the most basic idea in film editing. Ellipsis concerns the omission of a section of the story that is either obvious enough for the public to fill in or concealed for a narrative purpose, such as suspense or mystery.

I chose this video because i think it is a perfect example of ellipsis and how it is done in film. This also shows different ways which you can use ellipsis and how it lengthens the scene/ clip but shortens in time.
