Editing

A variety of editing types are used to put together each shot to form a clip.

such as: 

The simple cut shot used to go from one shot straight to another.

Also there is the eye line match which shows the eye level of a conversation, either speaking or a reaction. This may show a character looking down in one shot and then the next shot being a certain object which is then put together and shows the viewer what they was looking at.

Action match is another editing process. This is a shot of a character making a action and then the shot after will follow them doing the action. This might be a character walking through a door, therefore you can see them opening the door and then walking through it from the other side.

During a conversation shot reverse shot is used which is focussed on one person in the conversation and then moves straight to the other person so you can see their reaction. This shot makes the conversation flow. The characters used will be seen on the shot on either the right or left, each shot will have the character in the same place. For example: if seen of the left in the first shot the character will stay on the left in each shot for the rest of the conversation.
