Editing

Transitions

-Hard cuts:it's the change from one scene to another without any transition.
-Action match:it's when an action starts in one scene and it's ends in the next scene.
i.e: like when people start fighting in one scene and take their fight to an other scene let's say outside ...
-Eye line match: it's when we see an looking at something, like we can see he's eye direct to specific thing and the next thing we see, it's the object/thing or person she was looking at. Shot A looking----- Shot B looking at.
i.e: like when 2 people are fighting and they both direct their eyes on the floor and the next thing we see, it's a gun on the floor.
-Graphic match:it's when 2 shots are put side by side, like 2 shot chosen in like a shot reverse shot.
-Crosscutting:it when it cuts from one scene to another to show what's happening at the same time. It suggest that different actions are taking place at the same time but different locations.
-Shot reverse shot: it's usually used in conversations, where you one persons talking and in on side you have the image of the person who's talking and vice versa.
-Jump cut: it's when a scene started with an actor doing something,it cuts to show the thing done.
i.e: like if on scene we see a person walking towards a chair and it cuts to that person seating on the chair next.

Other kinds of transition:

-Wipe:it's a transition from one scene to another which might be used deliberately to create some king of tension.
-Fade in/out:when the image goes blank or black but slowly...
-Dissolve/Cross fade:The impression is of an image merging into and then becoming another. A slow mix usually suggests differences in time and place.
pace of the clip:it's when the pace in which the movie's shown, fast or slow paced.
privileged by the edit: it's when something or someone get the more time in front of the camera the other characters(or actors)
Marginalised by the edit:it's when a character get the least time og being in front of the camera.

Continuity editing is the editing that you almost never notice, it makes the story flow.
