The Film Editing Style in the Transitions Between Scenes in Rocky and Rocky II
İlkay Nişancı (İstanbul University, Turkey)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-6684-7864-6.ch012
Abstract
The transition between scenes and sequences is an aesthetic issue that the director should focus on as much as the scene decoupage. Before the editing process, you need to predict the last shot of the scene and the following shot. Undoubtedly, a movie can be edited without this foresight. However, transitions between scenes are an aesthetic area where the director can show his/her skills. The director's artifice can be seen in the transitions between scenes. Rocky and Rocky II, which are discussed in the context of this study, are two prominent examples in this sense. The scripts of both films belong to Sylvester Stallone. However, the first movie of the series was directed by John Guilbert Avildsen, and the second was directed by Sylvester Stallone. The choices of the directors in the transitions between the scenes reveal the difference of their editing style.
