Editing

Film form

What you need to know

Types of edit: the cut, dissolve, fade, wipe and jump cut.
Continuity editing: shot-reverse shot, the 180-degree rule, eyeline match and match on action, and how it builds relationships between characters.
Cross-cutting, montage, the pace of editing, ellipsis, and visual effects added in post-production.
How editing moves the narrative on and shapes our response, and naming a specific edit from a film rather than a general type.
