11. Editing techniques Back to back cuts. Colour fading. Freeze shots. The captions fit the style of the film because we can use editing techniques when the teenage is killed. Fading is typical in our genre because it causes suspense when action in the film is going to happen. A fading transition would suit this film because it can be used when ever a fast scene happens.
