Building a sequence is more than Just cutting from a wide shot to a close up shot.

Editors want a
sequence to be smooth and flow naturally. If you can get a match cut done in editing, the
sequence is smooth and there are no weird cuts. Matched action can be tricky because actors
don’t act the same in each shot. You can fix that by moving an edit point to get a better match
action edit. If you can do match cutting right, the audience will not notice where the edits are in a
movie. Even if you film two different shots for a scene on different days, you can make smooth
sequence that looks like there is no edit at all. The more things that move, the more important it
is to do match cut editing. You can shoot the same scene twice, but each take it is a different type
of shot, and by doing that you can make the editor choose what part of the scene will be the wide
shot and what part of that scene will be the close up. When you don’t match the action in editing,
it seems to shock the audience in a bad way. There are different ways to fix this, you can replace
the shot with a different show or just leave the jump cut in there and cover it up with something.
Another solution is to let moving objects leave the frame or enter the frame. That would be a
great place to position an edit.
