Question

Editing a scene that plays out in real time at a single location, but has a variety of shots to offer different amounts of detail including a single shot containing all of the action, is what kind of shooting/editing technique:_________

Answer 1

Answer: Master Shot

Explanation:

Master shots have the power to show an audience into the cinematic experience like no other shot because of their realism and action.

A master shot is often associated with a wide shot. When a video director is shooting a scene, there are likely many shots that are important to be covered in order for the scene to be well documented. A wide shot is often used as an establishing shot to show the environment, lead the audience into the scene, or used as a safety shot just in case something goes wrong. Most master shots are shot exclusively as wide shots.
