Carol Vernallis theory

Carol Vernallis looked at the camera work and the editing of the music video while studying her theory. She looked at how the editing was broken down in a special way to fit the music and to match what was going on in the video. She also looked at the base track and how it is the man visuals that the editors always cut back to. She also noted how editing is used to fit the music and the camera shots.

The music video 'Dip it Low' by Christina Milian, above has fast editing and cuts in time with the beat of the music, and the camera wor varies depending on what is going on in the video.
