Master Edits in a Professional Film

     Leit Motif: This is a scene from the first avengers movie. In this shot Captain America is running from the alien race that is trying to conquer the earth. This shot show Leit motif because in the background you can hear the theme music of Captain America.

Parallelism: This shot is from Criminal Minds season 4 episode 2. In this episode the FBI's B.A.U. has to catch a serial killer that is believed to be killed by lethal injection. In this scene the B.A.U. and the sheriff of the town are looking into the serial killers grave. After they open his coffin, they expect to find his body but instead they find it empty. This shows parallelism because while the coffin is being opened we are shown the reactions of everyone that is in the graveyard.

Simultaneity: This last shot is also from Criminal Minds it is from the same episode. This shot shows simultaneity though because while most of the B.A.U. is trying to distract the killer one of the B.A.U.'s agents goes into the house from somewhere else and saves the victim that was about to be killed.

This adds suspense and mystery to the scenes and what we see.  For example, in the club that the main character is in it is extremely dark and the only thing providing  light is the LED light strips around the sides and the arcade machines  providing light also.   The camera shots also provide suspense as  we  watch Yorkie, the main characte r,  walking through the streets stumbling around not sur...
