3. Two categories of editing:
invisible editing/continuity (mainstream narrative)
seek to hide or conceal edits
emphatic editing = calls attention to itself
the power of editing = Kuloshev

4. Continuity editing conventions
match cut
cutting on action
change camera angle min 30 degrees
focal length by at least 10mm change
easy cut bet. CUs
less bet. MS
difficult bet. LS
eye-line match
POV shot
jump cut

5. Continuity editing continued…
180o rule (action axis)
crossing the line
screen direction in action
ellipsis
entrances and exits (always shoot)
cut-ins (something already in the shot)
cut-aways (outside of shot, helps ellipsis)
continuity of bodies, props, objects
How can you cross the line?
character crosses the line
character’s gaze allows us to cross the line
