  1. The transitions clip was helpful, I liked the description of different transitions and their effect on an audience.

  3. I really enjoyed the transitions one, as well as being quite funny, i liked the fact that it explained the effect of different transitions and i think now I will be able to choose sensible transitions which also have meaning.

  4. I also liked the parallel editing, especially between the people coming with the guns and the guy with the fly, it really added dramatic effect!
