Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyse the theory of editing in contemporary film and television production. To define the role of the director in the process of editing audiovisual projects. To explore the mechanisms of editing theory. To argue the relevance of the editing principles of contemporary film and television production for today's directorial practice. Research methodology. The methodology of the study is based on the following methods: theoretical – for analysing available information sources and studies, empirical – for systematising own experience. The article uses a systematic and analytical approach to define the goals and strategies of scientific research: using special methods, the author analyses editing as a creative method of the director in creating audiovisual works and outlines the features of editing in contemporary film and television production. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the testing of a scientific problem, in particular, in determining the features of editing, taking into account its research and analysis in contemporary film and television production. For the first time, the author analyses the components of editing in the course of a director’s work on screen production in contemporary cinema. The influence of the director's work on the viewer's worldview and further actions is studied, and a detailed analysis of the use of editing tools in audiovisual works is carried out. The work of the director on the screen work is studied from the point of view of the main creative means of forming and building the dramatic framework of the audiovisual work. Conclusions. Following the goal, the article has analysed the theory of editing in contemporary film and television production. The role of the director in the editing of audiovisual projects has been defined. The mechanisms of the editing theory have been investigated, and the relevance of the editing principles of contemporary film and television production for today's directorial practice has been argued.
