Editing is not choosing beautiful frames; it is designing what happens when two frames meet.

Editing premise

Split the cut into three variables

Each test fixes shot order and varies motion continuity, audio lead or lag, and the duration of black. Results are read not as fast or slow, but by when the viewer begins expecting the next image.

Three cut tensions

  1. 01

    Motion

    Continue or collide

    Matching direction hides a cut; opposing direction makes it an event.

  2. 02

    Sound

    Establish expectation first

    When audio leads, the next image is imagined before it arrives.

  3. 03

    Absence

    Make time felt

    A brief black frame breaks continuity and amplifies the residue of the previous image.
