Order of the shots
The meaning of the whole scene can change depending on the order of the shots
Putting 2 shots together creates a connection
Order of the shots can reveal who motivates the edit – gets the most screen time (which characters are important)

Continuity
Establishing shot – establishes the location
180 degree rule – ensures that same space is described in each shot
Shot / reverse shot – linking action Eyeline match – character sees
something, next shot shows what he sees
Match on action – continuation of same movement in different shots

The process of cutting one shot to another usually involves a simple straight cut. However transitions are available:
o Fade to blacko Dissolve / Cross Fadeo Wipe

Transitions can: Imply a passage of time Change of location Emphasize a connection (actor
dreaming…dissolve)

Shot Duration/Pace & Rhythm Duration explains the narrative
context (emergency or ease)Short duration: action and urgencyLong duration: slower pace and
conveys intensity and intimacy (you can focus more on facial expressions and mise-en-scene that way)

Some editing terms
Parallel editing: This is an editing technique where two or more shots, set in different places, alternate, these are usually simultaneous, and the actions are linked in some way.
Split screen: it is the visible division of the screen, traditionally in half, but also in several simultaneous images happening at the same time.
Jump cut: A jump cut is when a single shot has an interruption. The interruption is either the background changes instantly while the figure in the shot remains the same, or that the figure changes instantly while the background remains the same.
