chronological jump. Showing a spectator in a semi-long shot can also provide visual relief
from the main action, and the opportunity of a transition away from the action if desired.
Complete actions
Always shoot complete actions with a beginning and an end. This makes editing easier.
Transitions
Cinematic timing requires some practice. It is not always possible to film long events in their
entirety, and in movies they often have to be represented in severely abbreviated form.
Nonetheless, the plot should remain logical and cuts should almost never call attention to
themselves.
This is where the transition from one scene to the next is important. Even if the action in
neighboring scenes is separated in time or space, your editorial choices can make the
juxtaposition so smooth that the viewer bridges the gap without conscious attention.
The secret to a successful transition is establishing an easily-felt connection between the two
scenes. In a plot-related transition, the connection is that of successive events in an unfolding
story. For example, a shot of a new car might be used to introduce a documentary about its
design and production.
A neutral transition doesn’t in itself imply a story development or a change of time or place,
but can be used to smoothly connect different excerpts from a scene. For example, cutting
away to an interested audience member during a podium discussion lets you then cut back
unobtrusively to a later point in the same discussion, omitting the part between.
External transitions show something apart from the action. For example, during a shot inside
the marriage registry, you might cut to the exterior of the marriage registry, where a surprise
is already being set up.
Transitions should underscore the message of the film and must always fit the respective
situation, in order to avoid confusing viewers or distracting from the actual story line.
Logical sequence of action
The shots strung together during editing must interact appropriately in relation to the action.
Viewers will be unable to follow the events unless the story line is logical. Capture viewer
interest from the very beginning with a fast-paced or spectacular start and maintain that
interest until the very end. Viewers can lose interest or become disoriented if scenes are
strung together in a manner that is illogical or chronologically false, or if scenes are too hectic
