The best way is to edit the tense scene, but don't cut it too short. This means that unnecessary pauses in the actor's dialogue need to be cut out. Shorten the space in the middle of each sentence, or even subtract the long and unimportant dialogue. But before you delete the dialogue, please consult the director first.

Give up temporary music

Many editors like to edit movies with temporary background music and use temporary music as a placeholder. Here I put forward two reasons not to advocate this practice.

3. Avoid opening editing methods in French.

The original French Open TV series used a specific dialogue editing method: the sound and the picture were completely synchronized, and there was no overlap. The common method is: cut a picture?

Moving camera lens

Moving lens is the main way to shoot action movies, which can be track camera, rotary arm camera, camera stabilizer or hand-held camera. Action movies usually present a tense atmosphere. When I edit a movie, I like to edit it when the camera moves, so as to ensure that the camera moves one after another, but many directors disagree. They prefer to edit the camera before it starts moving or after it stops moving. But I prefer compact editing to dazzle the audience.
