montage
A montage is a French term meaning "assembling shots" or "putting together". It is a
film technique for putting together a series of short shots that create a composite
picture. A montage can be described as a series of separate images, moving or still,
that are edited together to create a continuous sequence.
match cuts
A match cut is an edit in
cinematography that uses
elements of one scene in the
transition to the next scene.
The purpose is to create a
visual match for different
scenes that are not inherently
linked, like scenes set in
different locations, by having a
second shot that — in some way
— mirrors the first.
continuity editing
Continuity editing uses a variety of classic film
editing techniques to blend multiple camera
shots — some taken at different times or even
different locations — into a seamless, consistent
narrative
