Editing Techniques

Continuity Editing- This is the most common type of editing, which creates a sense of reality and time moving forward. Also nicknamed invisible editing as the audience don't pay attention to any editing process.

Jump Cut- In the middle of a continuous shot where the action becomes noticeably advanced in time or cut between two similar shots.

Match on Action- Matches the action of the preceding shot with the continuation of the action that emphasises continuity.

Eye-line Match- Where the its cuts from one character to what the character is looking at.

Cross Cutting-Alternating, interweaving or interspersing one narrative action with another, usually in different locations.

Cutaways- Brief shot that momentarily interrupts continuos action by briefly inserting another relted action. Followed by a cutback to the original shot.

Parallel Editing- Where events in two locations are cut together to imply a connection between two sets of events.
