  1. CRITICAL VIEWING VOCABULARY 12 POWERPOINT – EDITING TECHNIQUES & CONCEPTS

  2. SHOT • an uninterrupted section of film produced by a single running of the camera

  3. SEQUENCE • a series of several scenes that together create a major emotional narrative in a film.

  4. CUT • a splicing together of two sections of film; the most abrupt transition between shots.

  5. MONTAGE SEQUENCE • a series of shots edited together to music, developing the theme or emotional mood in a film and to quickly span time, preserving the pace of a film. Click Video to Play – ‘Rocky IV’

  6. GRAPHIC MATCH OR MATCH CUT • a transitional technique in which two shots are linked by visual, aural, or metaphoric similarities.

  7. BOOKENDS • scenes at the beginning and end of a film that complement each other and help tie a film together.

  8. LONG TAKE • a shot of long duration, not to be confused with a “long shot.” Click Video to Play – ‘Goodfellas’

  9. SHORT TAKE • a shot of short duration.

  10. FADE-IN (FADE-OUT) • a dark screen that gradually brightens as a shot appears. Click Video to Play

  11. DISSOLVE OR MIX • a shot transition in which the second image gradually appears on top of the first until the two are blended and the first image gradually disappears.

  12. IRIS • a round, constricting lens attachment that closes in the shape of a circle to end or begin a scene.

  13. WIPE • a shot transition in which a second shot slides its way into the frame while simultaneously horizontally, vertically, or diagonally pushing out the first.

  14. CROSS CUTTING • the editing technique of alternating, interweaving, or interspersing one narrative scene or sequence with another, usually in different locations to suggest parallel action.

  15. JUMP CUT • an abrupt, disorienting transitional device in the middle of a continuous shot in which the action is noticeably advanced in time, either a result of bad editing or done purposefully for artistic effect. Click Video to Play

  16. ROUGH CUT • often used in focus-group screening, an early edited version of a film with all the pieces of the film assembled in continuous, sequential order, but without any sophisticated editing; also known as first cut.

  17. FINAL CUT • the last edited version of a film as it will be released; also referred to as “in the can.”

  18. CONTINUITY • editing that provides a continuous and clear movement of events/images in a film as if they had occurred continuously when, in fact, they were shot out of sequence; also refers to the degree to which a film is self-consistent without errors.

  19. DIEGETIC • meaning “realistic” or “logically existing,” e.g. the music that plays on a character's radio in a scene; more generally, the narrative elements of a film that naturally originate within the content of the film reality; the opposite is “non-diegetic.”
