Editing and Mise-en-scene Manual

Mise-en-scene
Mis-en-scene constitutes the key aspects of preproduction phase of film and can be taken to include all aspects of the production design and cinematography
Mise-en-scene creates the diegetic world – the fictional world where the story takes place.
Non-diegetic- aspects that were added and was not supposed to be present within the scene.
Aspects of Mise-en-scene
Location-settings, et design and iconography
Character-costume, props, make-up, actor and gesture.
Cinematography-lighting and colour
Layout/page design-colour, placement of objects 
Editing
Editing is post production technique in which the footage shot during production is cut-up and re-assembled in such a way as to tell the story
Film is not shot in chronological order but in a series of takes which are then assembled into the correct order.
Which take was the best take? Did you pull different clips from different recordings to create the best piece of scene? Was one take or one camera work/camera angle selected due to its good quality ascpects.

Editing revolves around two types: Continuity and non-continuity.  Non continuity
Continuity consists of:
Establishing shot, the 180 degree line rule (takes place around shots with conversations between two or more people where both sides of the each sides are taken as the shot selection to establish that continutity , action match, cut away-reference to the scene props, shot-reverse shot, eyeline match.
Non-continuity consist of:
Montage sequence and Flashback/forwards shots

Sound
There are two types of sound
Diegetic-located within the story world (dialogue,sound effects,music)
Non-diegetic-sounds which do not have any explained source within the story world(incidental music, voice over, non diegetic sound effects).
