Creative Editing:

What happens?	How is this effective
The first scene where it is set in the jail, there is no cuts	It is a slow scene as it is focused on the conversation, not much tension is being built
There are many ____ where BF will do something as a contortionist and then it will cut to the press conference where is is doing the same thing	It is linking the two settings together and expressing how the theater puppet show is a metaphor for the press conference
Has news papers transperant in front of a black and white printer	It shows that it has been all over the news and the titles that reference to other songs from the film
The film has been sped up	It is imitating the old style film making it seem like an old style news report

Sound

Music

What happens?	How is this effective
At the very beginning of the scene there is trumpets and a drum symbol	It shows that this is at the start of the scene and something new is happening
Puppet show music, when in the theater scene	It assits with the image creating of how the press conference is like BF personal puppet show
When they sing “Oh yes oh yes etc” the pace of the music quickens	It shows a change in what they are singing, they are singing the message that they want the press to follow
Slow down “Understandable”	Because BF is singing about the morals of it all, telling the audience that it is nothing harsh or quick, but slow and easy to understand
Last chorus, starts slow and quiet and then builds in volume, holding on the last line	It builds up tension and adds excitement and rush and caioticness to the scene and how everyone is frantically and confidentally saying “They both reached fro the gun”
Softer quiter and lighter music	It is like taking a breath after all the rush of that pervious scene

Dialogue:

What happens?	How is this effective
BF and Roxy are talking over how they are selling them the idea “we both reached for the gun”	It shows that they are planting an idea in the press that they “both...” it shows us that this is not true and they are using the media to their gain
MS: “As you know my paper is dry, do you have any advice for young girls who want to avoid a life of jazz and drink”	They are the press and she has been put on trial for something to do with jazz and drink.
“Shut up dummy” then goes to the theater where BF is a contritious	It links the ideas together and shows why they protray them that way. Roxy, being only useful as an image but BF is actually doing all the work
While the press is asking Roxy questions and roxy is answering the presses questions they are sining	Bring the musical genre, into play and because the film is about musicals and jazz, by making the film a mix of a musical, it highlights the genre and successfully links it to the themes of the film.
“Both reached for” “the gun” is sun by BF but his mough is not moving	Shows that he no longer has to do anything to get his message across to everyone, the press has taken over that.
“it seems everyone these days is rooting for roxy hart”	They treat criminals like celebrities
The second “Understandable” Miss Sunshine joins in	That the BF has suceeded and they press now believe that it is plain and simple and “Understandable” why roxy shot the man
The voiceover, dialogue of a news report talks about Roxy	It is talking about her court case and how she has become poplour, it shows her amount of publicity as well as seeing the outcome of the previous number
“Gentlemen, Gentlemen, Ms Sunshine”	Show's Miss Sunshines importance in the press
