Rocky IV – Training scene

In this montage sequence, there are various cuts between two men who are training to compete in a fight with one another. The blonde man is represented as dominant as he is training with all high-tech equipment whereas the other man is training with basis equipment such as skipping ropes and etc. The use of the cuts is extremely effective as it makes it clear to the audience the difference between the two men. In this video the man with brown hair who is lower class is represented as the underdog. For example, at the end of the video the man with brown hair reaches the top of the mountain and becomes victorious. This is effectively shown also with the use of various cuts between him and the other man. The camera is cutting between them both to show the blonde man training on his treadmill increasing his incline but the camera cuts rapidly to the other man who actually reaches the top of a mountain. Mine and Abbas’s innovation of our video is going to be quite similar to this one. For example, we are going to create a montage where there are a series of cuts of the underdog training and at the end she wins the race and beats her competitor that actually beat her in the first round.
