Editing is a key elect in the film production, helping to create emotions for the audience. Here are some different elements of editing that can be seen in pyschological thrillers.
- Montages can be used to excite the audience. A montage is a series of fast paced shots put together to create a fast amount of information given at one time and can connote different emotions. This can include a montage of childhood memories of a character such as shots of them playing as a child or a series of small traumatic experiences they have had leading them to where they are now.
- Slow motion can be used in psychological thrillers; this style building suspense due to the prolonged editing leading the audience to question what will happen next.
- Fast paced editing is nearly always used in psychological thrillers, this editing also building up tension and excitement in a scene with action in it. This could be conventionally used in a chase scene between an antagonist and a protagonist in a scene. This can also be used in scenes where the antagonist is figuring out what to do next or how to get out of a situation, building up the suspense and creating a feel that the character is also thinking quickly, co-operating with the quick editing.
