Abstract
The feature of trailers is to summarize the film in a short time and to intrigue audience to watch it in a whole. The vital content of notice film is mostly selected by the editor based on his/her subjective experience. However, literature concerning the editing of film trailers and the correlation between film content and audience in terms of semantic awareness is rarely seen. This study is developed based on semantic network, conducting literature review to collect, analyze, and conclude suggestions on the editing of film for teaching. It adopts Taiwan Treasure: Rice released by Discovery as the theme and applies content analysis to discover the existing semantic content of this film. Moreover, this study collects the inspired vocabularies by means of experiment method and establishes the structure of semantic network on the basis of Kawakita Jiro method. Initially, it develops three perspectives of semantic word groups: rice cuisine, history background, and Taiwanese spirit, editing the film trailers respectively. Afterwards, this study re-collects the inspired vocabularies of film trailers in the manner of experiment method and narrative interview for the semantic network analysis of KJ method again. Eventually, this study completes the semantic network map and presents the similarities and differences of semantic network in the way of transactional analysis. The study results present that analyzing the content of educational films prior to the semantic editing is beneficial to constructing the overall process of film trailers. The editing of film for teaching shows the objective semantic association in the manner of narrative montage. The inspired vocabularies of film for teaching and edited film trailers are close to the results of correspondent key frame comparison. This study proposes suggestions based on the experience of integrating semantic network into the editing of film for teaching.
