Axial Cut
Axial CutLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedCut directly between different image sizes on the same viewing axis; show no travel between sizes.
Impact Cut
Impact CutLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantUse a direct picture cut and an intentional sound change; sustain the incoming event rather than returning after a flash insert.
Cross-Cutting
Cross-CuttingLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantAlternate continuing action strands; preserve each location and make any temporal or geographic inference accountable to visible cues.
Cross-Dissolve
Cross-DissolveLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedTrade shot opacity over a measured overlap; do not warp objects, and finish with only the incoming shot.
Fade to / from a Field
Fade to / from a FieldLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedFade picture opacity to or from a uniform field; any declared field-only interval contains no residual scene image.
Flash Insert
Flash InsertLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedInsert a separately identifiable image for a declared frame count, then return to the ongoing scene.
Fragmented Action Coverage
Fragmented Action CoverageLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedBuild one intelligible event from partial views and causal sound; no shot supplies the entire impact.
Associative Match Cut
Associative Match CutLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+2 variantsCut directly between distinct contexts using a declared screen-space correspondence; no morph or dissolve substitutes for the match.
Invisible Stitch
Invisible StitchLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantConceal each stitch in planned coverage and match camera motion, subject state and sound across it; disclose the assembled take.
Iris Matte
Iris MatteLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantAnimate an opaque circular matte over complete plates; preserve underlying image geometry and define the center and open/closed endpoints.
J / L Split Edit
J / L Split EditLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantKeep separate picture and audible sound edit points: J prelaps incoming sound, L tails outgoing sound. Preserve source-time synchronization and export a real audio track.
Jump Cut
Jump CutLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedOmit source-time intervals with hard cuts inside a similar setup; show one person per frame and no interpolated bridge.
Match on Action
Match on ActionLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedUse a direct matched-phase cut between angles of the same continuous gesture; do not dissolve, repeat or omit the action beat.
Process Montage / Ellipsis
Process Montage / EllipsisLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantOrder separately acquired process stages to imply omitted time; keep stage actions intelligible and do not fabricate continuous acquisition.
Rhythmic Short Cuts
Rhythmic Short CutsLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedUse distinct views with planned edit lengths; keep contact sounds tied to actual visible events rather than every cut.
Scenic Transformation Transition
Scenic Transformation TransitionLegacy preview · not recipe-validatedReveal the new environment with moving scenic boundaries while retaining one uninterrupted foreground performance and coherent occlusion.
Graphic Wipe
Graphic WipeLegacy preview · not recipe-validated+1 variantMove a defined matte boundary to replace A with B; keep both images geometrically intact on their visible sides.
