editing is different between a film and a short film (e.g. a movie is different to a documentary/short film). It needs to be different because of the time length difference between the 2. For example a film or movie would need to have a lot of continuity in order for the film to make sense, whereas in a short film there isn't really much continuity because they don't really tell the whole story, they only tell it in parts (only including the more important parts).
They will use a lot of jump cuts for short films in order to cut out all the slow and boring parts, in a way creating a sense of pace to the short film. There tends to be interviews in documentaries/short films with either experts or just every day people in general. For these interviews they will probably use mid close up shots normally on a black background the reason for this is because they don't want distractions in the background they only want to viewer to focus on the persons face so that is why they use the mid close up.
Mise-en-scene for our documentary will have natural lighting for the majority of our short film and for interviews we will have bright lighting just on the person and no lighting in the background. The reason for this is because we want the attention to be focused on the person we are interviewing in order for the audience to understand and listen to what he/she is saying. there won't be any specific costumes for our short film the only costume we will be using is a thobe for our arab actor so that people can see the difference between the 2 different actors. For non-verbal communication we want our actors to give off a very serious vibe because we want it to reflect on our aim which is serious about improving the problem with diabetes in Qatar as it could be a life or death situation. We will also be using a lot of props in our short film such as the diabetes pen to inject yourself just so we make our film seem as realistic as possible.
