title="Post-production">post-production</a> process of <a href="/wiki/Filmmaking" title="Filmmaking">filmmaking</a>. The term is derived from the traditional process of working with <a href="/wiki/Film_stock" title="Film stock">film</a> which increasingly involves the use <a href="/wiki/Digital_cinema" title="Digital cinema">of digital technology</a>. When putting together some sort of video composition, typically, you would need a collection of shots and footages that vary from one another. The act of adjusting the shots you have already taken, and turning them into something new is known as film editing. </p><p>The <b>film editor</b> works with raw <a href="/wiki/Footage" title="Footage">footage</a>, selecting <a href="/wiki/Shot_(filming)" class="mw-redirect" title="Shot (filming)">shots</a> and combining them into <a href="/wiki/Sequence_(filmmaking)" title="Sequence (filmmaking)">sequences</a> which create a finished <a href="/wiki/Film" title="Film">motion picture</a>. Film editing is described as an art or skill, the only art that is unique to cinema, separating filmmaking from other art forms that preceded it, although there are close parallels to the editing process in other art forms such as poetry and novel writing. Film editing is an extremely important tool when attempting to intrigue a viewer. When done properly, a film's editing can captivate a viewer and fly completely under the radar. Because of this, film editing has been given the name “the invisible art.” </p><p>On its most fundamental level, film editing is the <a href="/wiki/Art" title="Art">art</a>, technique and practice of assembling shots into a coherent sequence. The job of an editor is not simply to mechanically put pieces of a film together, cut off film <a href="/wiki/Clapperboard" title="Clapperboard">slates</a> or edit dialogue scenes. A film editor must creatively work with the layers of images, story, dialogue, music, pacing, as well as the actors' performances to effectively "re-imagine" and even rewrite the film to craft a cohesive whole. Editors usually play a dynamic role in the making of a film. An editor must select only the most quality shots, removing all unnecessary frames to ensure the shot is clean. Sometimes, auteurist <a href="/wiki/Film_director" title="Film director">film directors</a> edit their own films, for example, <a href="/wiki/Akira_Kurosawa" title="Akira Kurosawa">Akira Kurosawa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bahram_Beyzai" title="Bahram Beyzai">Bahram Beyzai</a>, <a href="/wiki/Steven_Soderbergh" title="Steven Soderbergh">Steven Soderbergh</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Coen_brothers" title="Coen brothers">Coen brothers</a>. </p><p>According to “Film Art, An Introduction”, by Bordwell and Thompson, there are four basic areas of film editing that the editor has full control over. The first dimension is the graphic relations between a shot A and shot B. The shots are analyzed in terms of their graphic configurations, including light and dark, lines and shapes, volumes and depths, movement and stasis. The director makes deliberate choices regarding the composition, lighting, color, and movement within each shot, as well as the transitions between them. There are several techniques used by editors to establish graphic relations between shots. These include maintaining overall brightness consistency, keeping important elements in the center of the frame, playing with color differences, and creating visual matches or continuities between shots. </p><p>The second dimension is the rhythmic relationship between shot A and shot B. The duration of each shot, determined by the number of frames or length of film, contributes to the overall rhythm of the film. The filmmaker has control over the editing rhythm by adjusting the length of shots in relation to each other. Shot duration can be used to create specific effects and emphasize moments in the film. For example, a brief flash of white frames can convey a sudden impact or a violent moment. On the other hand, lengthening or adding seconds to a shot can allow for audience reaction or to accentuate an action. The length of shots can also be used to establish a rhythmic pattern, such as creating a steady beat or gradually slowing down or accelerating the tempo. </p><p>The third dimension is the spatial relationship between shot A and shot B. Editing allows the filmmaker to construct film space and imply a relationship between different points in space. The filmmaker can juxtapose shots to establish spatial holes or construct a whole space out of component parts. For example, the filmmaker can start with a shot that establishes a spatial hole and then follow it with a shot of a part of that space, creating an analytical breakdown. </p><p>The final dimension that an editor has control over is the temporal relation between shot A and shot B. Editing plays a crucial role in manipulating the time of action in a film. It allows filmmakers to control the order, duration, and frequency of events, thus shaping the narrative and influencing the audience's perception of time. Through editing, shots can be rearranged, flashbacks and flash-forwards can be employed, and the duration of actions can be compressed or expanded. The main point is that editing gives filmmakers the power to control and manipulate the temporal aspects of storytelling in film. </p><p>Between graphic, rhythmic, spatial, and temporal relationships between two shots, an editor has various ways to add a creative element to the film, and enhance the overall viewing experience. </p><p>With the advent of digital editing in <a href="/wiki/Non-linear_editing_system" class="mw-redirect" title="Non-linear editing system">non-linear editing systems</a>, film editors and their assistants have become responsible for many areas of filmmaking that used to be the responsibility of others. For instance, in past years, picture editors dealt only with just that—picture. Sound, music, and (more recently) visual effects editors dealt with the practicalities of other aspects of the editing process, usually under the direction of the picture editor and director. However, digital systems have increasingly put these responsibilities on the picture editor. It is common, especially on lower budget films, for the editor to sometimes cut in temporary music, mock up visual effects and add temporary sound effects or other sound replacements. These temporary elements are usually replaced with more refined final elements produced by the sound, music and visual effects teams hired to complete the picture.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

The film used the first "<a href="/wiki/Reverse_angle" class="mw-redirect" title="Reverse angle">reverse angle</a>" cut in film history. </p><p>James Williamson concentrated on making films taking action from one place shown in one shot to the next shown in another shot in films like <i>Stop Thief!</i> and <i>Fire!</i>, made in 1901, and many others. He also experimented with the close-up, and made perhaps the most extreme one of all in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Big_Swallow" title="The Big Swallow">The Big Swallow</a></i>, when his character approaches the camera and appears to swallow it. These two filmmakers of the Brighton School also pioneered the editing of the film; they tinted their work with color and used trick photography to enhance the narrative. By 1900, their films were extended scenes of up to five minutes long.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg/250px-The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg" decoding="async" width="250" height="200" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg/375px-The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg/500px-The_Great_Train_Robbery_0018.jpg 2x" data-file-width="720" data-file-height="576" /></a><figcaption>Scene from <i><a href="/wiki/The_Great_Train_Robbery_(1903_film)" title="The Great Train Robbery (1903 film)">The Great Train Robbery</a></i> (1903), directed by <a href="/wiki/Edwin_Stanton_Porter" class="mw-redirect" title="Edwin Stanton Porter">Edwin Stanton Porter</a></figcaption></figure> <p>Other filmmakers then took up all these ideas including the American <a href="/wiki/Edwin_Stanton_Porter" class="mw-redirect" title="Edwin Stanton Porter">Edwin S.

The film was the first American film with a plot, featuring action, and even a closeup of a hand pulling a fire alarm. The film comprised a continuous narrative over seven scenes, rendered in a total of nine shots.<sup id="cite_ref-musser_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-musser-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He put a dissolve between every shot, just as <a href="/wiki/Georges_M%C3%A9li%C3%A8s" title="Georges Méliès">Georges Méliès</a> was already doing, and he frequently had the same action repeated across the dissolves. His film, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Great_Train_Robbery_(1903_film)" title="The Great Train Robbery (1903 film)">The Great Train Robbery</a></i> (1903), had a running time of twelve minutes, with twenty separate shots and ten different indoor and outdoor locations. He used <a href="/wiki/Cross-cutting" title="Cross-cutting">cross-cutting</a> editing method to show simultaneous action in different places. </p><p>These early film directors discovered important aspects of motion picture language: that the screen image does not need to show a complete person from head to toe and that splicing together two shots creates in the viewer's mind a contextual relationship. These were the key discoveries that made all non-live or non live-on-videotape narrative motion pictures and television possible—that shots (in this case, whole scenes since each shot is a complete scene) can be photographed at widely different locations over a period of time (hours, days or even months) and combined into a narrative whole.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> That is, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Great_Train_Robbery_(1903_film)" title="The Great Train Robbery (1903 film)">The Great Train Robbery</a></i> contains scenes shot on sets of a telegraph station, a railroad car interior, and a dance hall, with outdoor scenes at a railroad water tower, on the train itself, at a point along the track, and in the woods. But when the robbers leave the telegraph station interior (set) and emerge at the water tower, the audience believes they went immediately from one to the other. Or that when they climb on the train in one shot and enter the baggage car (a set) in the next, the audience believes they are on the same train. </p><p>Sometime around 1918, <a href="/wiki/Russians" title="Russians">Russian</a> director <a href="/wiki/Lev_Kuleshov" title="Lev Kuleshov">Lev Kuleshov</a> did an experiment that proves this point. (See <a href="/wiki/Kuleshov_Experiment" class="mw-redirect" title="Kuleshov Experiment">Kuleshov Experiment</a>) He took an old film clip of a headshot of a noted Russian actor and intercut the shot with a shot of a bowl of soup, then with a child playing with a teddy bear, then with a shot an elderly woman in a casket. When he showed the film to people they praised the actor's acting—the hunger in his face when he saw the soup, the delight in the child, and the grief when looking at the dead woman.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Of course, the shot of the actor was years before the other shots and he never "saw" any of the items.

Editors were very precise; if they made a wrong cut or needed a fresh positive print, it cost the production money and time for the lab to reprint the footage. Additionally, each reprint put the negative at risk of damage. With the invention of a splicer and threading the machine with a viewer such as a <a href="/wiki/Moviola" title="Moviola">Moviola</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Flatbed_editor" title="Flatbed editor">"flatbed" machine</a> such as a K.-E.-M. or <a href="/wiki/Steenbeck" title="Steenbeck">Steenbeck</a>, the editing process sped up a little bit and cuts came out cleaner and more precise. The Moviola editing practice is non-linear, allowing the editor to make choices faster, a great advantage to editing episodic films for television which have very short timelines to complete the work. All film studios and production companies who produced films for television provided this tool for their editors. Flatbed editing machines were used for playback and refinement of cuts, particularly in feature films and films made for television because they were less noisy and cleaner to work with. They were used extensively for documentary and drama production within the BBC's Film Department. Operated by a team of two, an editor and assistant editor, this tactile process required significant skill but allowed for editors to work extremely efficiently.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Modern film editing has evolved significantly since it was first introduced to the film and entertainment industry. Some other new aspects of editing have been introduced such as color grading and digital workflows. As mentioned earlier, over the course of time, new technology has exponentially enhanced the quality of pictures in films. One of the most important steps in this process was transitioning from analog to digital filmmaking. By doing this, it gives the ability editors to immediately playback scenes, duplication and much more. Additionally digital has simplified and reduced the cost of filmmaking. Digital film is not only cheaper, but lasts longer, is safer, and is overall more efficient. Color grading is a post production process, where the editor manipulates or enhances the color of images, or environments in order to create a color tone. Doing this can alter the setting, tone, and mood of the entirety of scenes, and can enhance reactions that would otherwise have the possibility of being dull or out of place. Color grading is vital to the film editing process, and is technology that allows editors to enhance a story. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg/220px-16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="330" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg/330px-16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg/440px-16mm_editing_synchroniser_1980%27s_1.jpg 2x" data-file-width="683" data-file-height="1024" /></a><figcaption>Acmade Picsynch for sound and picture coordination</figcaption></figure> <p>Today, most films are edited digitally (on systems such as <a href="/wiki/Media_Composer" title="Media Composer">Media Composer</a>, <a href="/wiki/Final_Cut_Pro_X" class="mw-redirect" title="Final Cut Pro X">Final Cut Pro X</a> or <a href="/wiki/Premiere_Pro" class="mw-redirect" title="Premiere Pro">Premiere Pro</a>) and bypass the film positive workprint altogether. In the past, the use of a film positive (not the original negative) allowed the editor to do as much experimenting as he or she wished, without the risk of damaging the original. With digital editing, editors can experiment just as much as before except with the footage completely transferred to a computer hard drive. </p><p>When the film workprint had been cut to a satisfactory state, it was then used to make an edit decision list (EDL). The negative cutter referred to this list while processing the negative, splitting the shots into rolls, which were then contact printed to produce the final film print or <a href="/wiki/Answer_print" title="Answer print">answer print</a>. Today, production companies have the option of bypassing negative cutting altogether. With the advent of digital intermediate ("DI"), the physical negative does not necessarily need to be physically cut and hot spliced together; rather the negative is optically scanned into the computer(s) and a cut list is confirmed by a DI editor. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Women_in_film_editing">Women in film editing</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_editing&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Women in film editing"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the early years of film, editing was considered a technical job; editors were expected to "cut out the bad bits" and string the film together.

An editor's cut (sometimes referred to as the "Assembly edit" or "Rough cut") is normally the first pass of what the final film will be when it reaches <a href="/wiki/Picture_lock" title="Picture lock">picture lock</a>. The film editor usually starts working while principal photography starts. Sometimes, prior to cutting, the editor and director will have seen and discussed "<a href="/wiki/Dailies" title="Dailies">dailies</a>" (raw footage shot each day) as shooting progresses. As production schedules have shortened over the years, this co-viewing happens less often. Screening dailies give the editor a general idea of the director's intentions. Because it is the first pass, the editor's cut might be longer than the final film. The editor continues to refine the cut while shooting continues, and often the entire editing process goes on for many months and sometimes more than a year, depending on the film. The editor's cut is an opportunity for the editor to shape the story and present their vision of how the film should unfold. It provides a solid foundation for further collaboration with the director, allowing them to assess the initial assembly and provide feedback or guidance on the creative direction. </p><p>When shooting is finished, the <a href="/wiki/Film_director" title="Film director">director</a> can then turn his or her full attention to collaborating with the editor and further refining the cut of the film. This is the time that is set aside where the film editor's first cut is molded to fit the director's vision. In the United States, under the rules of the <a href="/wiki/Directors_Guild_of_America" title="Directors Guild of America">Directors Guild of America</a>, directors receive a minimum of ten weeks after completion of principal photography to prepare their first cut. While collaborating on what is referred to as the "director's cut", the director and the editor go over the entire movie in great detail; scenes and shots are re-ordered, removed, shortened and otherwise tweaked. Often it is discovered that there are <a href="/wiki/Plot_hole" title="Plot hole">plot holes</a>, missing shots or even missing segments which might require that new scenes be filmed. Because of this time working closely and collaborating – a period that is normally far longer and more intricately detailed than the entire preceding film production – many directors and editors form a unique artistic bond. The goal is to align the film with the director's artistic vision and narrative objectives. The director's cut typically involves multiple iterations and discussions until both the director and editor are satisfied with the overall direction of the film. </p><p>Often after the director has had their chance to oversee a cut, the subsequent cuts are supervised by one or more producers, who represent the production company or <a href="/wiki/Movie_studio" class="mw-redirect" title="Movie studio">movie studio</a>. There have been several conflicts in the past between the director and the studio, sometimes leading to the use of the "<a href="/wiki/Alan_Smithee" title="Alan Smithee">Alan Smithee</a>" credit signifying when a director no longer wants to be associated with the final release. The final cut is the last stage of post-production editing and represents the definitive version of the film. It is the result of the collaborative efforts between the director, editor, and other key stakeholders. The final cut reflects the agreed-upon creative decisions and serves as the basis for distribution and exhibition. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Mise_en_Scene_vs_Editing">Mise en Scene vs Editing</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_editing&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Mise en Scene vs Editing"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-Unreferenced_section plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Unreferenced" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section <b>does not <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">cite</a> any <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">sources</a></b>.<span class="hide-when-compact"> Please help <a href="/wiki/Special:EditPage/Film_editing" title="Special:EditPage/Film editing">improve this section</a> by <a href="/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners" title="Help:Referencing for beginners">adding citations to reliable sources</a>.

Film editing and Mise en scene go hand in hand with one another. A major part of film editing is the use of filters and adjusting the lighting in a shot. Film editing contributes to the mise en scene of a given shot. When shooting a film, you typically get shots from multiple angles.

Hollywood cinema</a>, a "<a href="/wiki/Montage_sequence" class="mw-redirect" title="Montage sequence">montage sequence</a>" is a short segment in a film in which narrative information is presented in a condensed fashion.</li></ol> <p>Although film director <a href="/wiki/David_Wark_Griffith" class="mw-redirect" title="David Wark Griffith">D. W. Griffith</a> was not part of the montage school, he was one of the early proponents of the power of editing — mastering <a href="/wiki/Cross-cutting" title="Cross-cutting">cross-cutting</a> to show parallel action in different locations, and codifying film grammar in other ways as well. Griffith's work in the teens was highly regarded by <a href="/wiki/Lev_Kuleshov" title="Lev Kuleshov">Lev Kuleshov</a> and other Soviet filmmakers and greatly influenced their understanding of editing. </p><p>Kuleshov was among the first to <a href="/wiki/Soviet_montage_theory" title="Soviet montage theory">theorize about the relatively young medium of the cinema</a> in the 1920s. For him, the unique essence of the cinema — that which could be duplicated in no other medium — is editing. He argues that editing a film is like constructing a building. Brick-by-brick (shot-by-shot) the building (film) is erected. His often-cited <a href="/wiki/Kuleshov_Experiment" class="mw-redirect" title="Kuleshov Experiment">Kuleshov Experiment</a> established that montage can lead the viewer to reach certain conclusions about the action in a film. Montage works because viewers infer meaning based on context. <a href="/wiki/Sergei_Eisenstein" title="Sergei Eisenstein">Sergei Eisenstein</a> was briefly a student of Kuleshov's, but the two parted ways because they had different ideas of montage. Eisenstein regarded montage as a <a href="/wiki/Dialectic" title="Dialectic">dialectical</a> means of creating meaning. By contrasting unrelated shots he tried to provoke associations in the viewer, which were induced by shocks. But Eisenstein did not always do his own editing, and some of his most important films were edited by Esfir Tobak.<sup id="cite_ref-edited_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-edited-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A <a href="/wiki/Montage_sequence" class="mw-redirect" title="Montage sequence">montage sequence</a> consists of a series of short shots that are edited into a sequence to condense narrative. It is usually used to advance the story as a whole (often to suggest the passage of time), rather than to create symbolic meaning. In many cases, a song plays in the background to enhance the mood or reinforce the message being conveyed. One famous example of montage was seen in the 1968 film <i><a href="/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_(film)" class="mw-redirect" title="2001: A Space Odyssey (film)">2001: A Space Odyssey</a></i>, depicting the start of man's first development from apes to humans. Another example that is employed in many films is the sports montage. The sports montage shows the star athlete training over a period of time, each shot having more improvement than the last. Classic examples include Rocky and the Karate Kid. </p><p>The word's association with Sergei Eisenstein is often condensed—too simply—into the idea of "juxtaposition" or into two words: "collision montage," whereby two adjacent shots that oppose each other on formal parameters or on the content of their images are cut against each other to create a new meaning not contained in the respective shots: Shot a + Shot b = New Meaning c. </p><p>The association of collision montage with Eisenstein is not surprising. He consistently maintained that the mind functions dialectically, in the <a href="/wiki/Hegelian" class="mw-redirect" title="Hegelian">Hegelian</a> sense, that the contradiction between opposing ideas (thesis versus antithesis) is resolved by a higher truth, synthesis. He argued that conflict was the basis of <i>all</i> art, and never failed to see montage in other cultures. For example, he saw montage as a guiding principle in the construction of "<a href="/wiki/Japanese_writing_system" title="Japanese writing system">Japanese hieroglyphics</a> in which two independent ideographic characters ('shots') are juxtaposed and <i>explode</i> into a concept. Thus: </p> <dl><dd>Eye + Water = Crying</dd> <dd>Door + Ear = Eavesdropping</dd> <dd>Child + Mouth = Screaming</dd> <dd>Mouth + Dog = Barking</dd> <dd>Mouth + Bird = Singing."<sup id="cite_ref-Eisenstein_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Eisenstein-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></dd></dl> <p>He also found montage in Japanese <a href="/wiki/Haiku" title="Haiku">haiku</a>, where short sense perceptions are juxtaposed and synthesized into a new meaning, as in this example: </p> <dl><dd>A lonely crow <dl><dd>On a leafless bough <dl><dd>One autumn eve.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p>(枯朶に烏のとまりけり秋の暮) </p><p>— <a href="/wiki/Matsuo_Basho" class="mw-redirect" title="Matsuo Basho">Matsuo Basho</a> </p><p>As Dudley Andrew notes, "The collision of attractions from line to line produces the unified psychological effect which is the hallmark of haiku and montage."<sup id="cite_ref-Andrew_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Andrew-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Continuity_editing_and_alternatives">Continuity editing and alternatives</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_editing&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Continuity editing and alternatives"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Continuity_editing" title="Continuity editing">Continuity editing</a></div> <p>Continuity editing, developed in the early 1900s, aimed to create a coherent and smooth storytelling experience in films. It relied on consistent graphic qualities, balanced composition, and controlled editing rhythms to ensure narrative continuity and engage the audience. For example, whether an actor's costume remains the same from one scene to the next, or whether a glass of milk held by a character is full or empty throughout the scene. Because films are typically shot out of sequence, the <a href="/wiki/Script_supervisor" title="Script supervisor">script supervisor</a> will keep a record of continuity and provide that to the film editor for reference. The editor may try to maintain continuity of elements, or may intentionally create a discontinuous sequence for stylistic or narrative effect. </p><p>The technique of continuity editing, part of the <a href="/wiki/Classical_Hollywood_cinema" title="Classical Hollywood cinema">classical Hollywood</a> style, was developed by early European and American directors, in particular, <a href="/wiki/David_Wark_Griffith" class="mw-redirect" title="David Wark Griffith">D.W. Griffith</a> in his films such as <i><a href="/wiki/The_Birth_of_a_Nation" title="The Birth of a Nation">The Birth of a Nation</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Intolerance_(film)" title="Intolerance (film)">Intolerance</a></i>. The classical style embraces temporal and spatial continuity as a way of advancing the narrative, using such techniques as the <a href="/wiki/180_degree_rule" class="mw-redirect" title="180 degree rule">180 degree rule</a>, <a href="/wiki/Establishing_shot" title="Establishing shot">Establishing shot</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Shot_reverse_shot" class="mw-redirect" title="Shot reverse shot">Shot reverse shot</a>. The 180-degree system in film editing ensures consistency in shot composition by keeping relative positions of characters or objects in the frame consistent. It also maintains consistent eye-lines and screen direction to avoid disorientation and confusion for the audience, allowing for clear spatial delineation and a smooth narrative experience. Often, continuity editing means finding a balance between literal continuity and perceived continuity. For instance, editors may condense action across cuts in a non-distracting way. A character walking from one place to another may "skip" a section of floor from one side of a cut to the other, but the cut is constructed to appear continuous so as not to distract the viewer. </p><p>Early Russian filmmakers such as Lev Kuleshov (already mentioned) further explored and theorized about editing and its ideological nature. <a href="/wiki/Sergei_Eisenstein" title="Sergei Eisenstein">Sergei Eisenstein</a> developed a system of editing that was unconcerned with the rules of the continuity system of classical Hollywood that he called <a href="/wiki/Intellectual_montage" class="mw-redirect" title="Intellectual montage">Intellectual montage</a>. </p><p>Alternatives to traditional editing were also explored by early <a href="/wiki/Surrealist" class="mw-redirect" title="Surrealist">surrealist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Dada" title="Dada">Dada</a> filmmakers such as <a href="/wiki/Luis_Bu%C3%B1uel" title="Luis Buñuel">Luis Buñuel</a> (director of the 1929 <i>Un Chien Andalou</i>) and <a href="/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Clair" title="René Clair">René Clair</a> (director of 1924's <i>Entr'acte</i> which starred famous Dada artists <a href="/wiki/Marcel_Duchamp" title="Marcel Duchamp">Marcel Duchamp</a> and <a href="/wiki/Man_Ray" title="Man Ray">Man Ray</a>). </p><p>Filmmakers have explored alternatives to continuity editing, focusing on graphic and rhythmic possibilities in their films. Experimental filmmakers like Stan Brakhage and Bruce Conner have used purely graphic elements to join shots, emphasizing light, texture, and shape rather than narrative coherence. Non-narrative films have prioritized rhythmic relations among shots, even employing single-frame shots for extreme rhythmic effects. Narrative filmmakers, such as Busby Berkeley and Yasujiro Ow, have occasionally subordinated narrative concerns to graphic or rhythmic patterns, while films influenced by music videos often feature pulsating rhythmic editing that de-emphasizes spatial and temporal dimensions. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/French_New_Wave" title="French New Wave">French New Wave</a> filmmakers such as <a href="/wiki/Jean-Luc_Godard" title="Jean-Luc Godard">Jean-Luc Godard</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_Truffaut" title="François Truffaut">François Truffaut</a> and their American counterparts such as <a href="/wiki/Andy_Warhol" title="Andy Warhol">Andy Warhol</a> and <a href="/wiki/John_Cassavetes" title="John Cassavetes">John Cassavetes</a> also pushed the limits of editing technique during the late 1950s and throughout the 1960s. French New Wave films and the <a href="/wiki/Non-narrative_film" title="Non-narrative film">non-narrative films</a> of the 1960s used a carefree editing style and did not conform to the traditional editing etiquette of Hollywood films. Like its Dada and surrealist predecessors, <a href="/wiki/French_New_Wave" title="French New Wave">French New Wave</a> editing often drew attention to itself by its lack of continuity, its demystifying self-reflexive nature (reminding the audience that they were watching a film), and by the overt use of <a href="/wiki/Jump_cut" title="Jump cut">jump cuts</a> or the insertion of material not often related to any narrative. Three of the most influential editors of French New Wave films were the women who (in combination) edited 15 of Godard's films: Francoise Collin, Agnes Guillemot, and Cecile Decugis, and another notable editor is <a href="/wiki/Marie-Jos%C3%A8phe_Yoyotte" title="Marie-Josèphe Yoyotte">Marie-Josèphe Yoyotte</a>, the first black woman editor in French cinema and editor of <i><a href="/wiki/The_400_Blows" title="The 400 Blows">The 400 Blows</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-edited_9-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-edited-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Since the late 20th century <a href="/wiki/Post-classical_editing" title="Post-classical editing">Post-classical editing</a> has seen faster editing styles with nonlinear, discontinuous action. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Significance">Significance</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_editing&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Significance"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Vsevolod_Pudovkin" title="Vsevolod Pudovkin">Vsevolod Pudovkin</a> noted that the editing process is the one phase of production that is truly unique to motion pictures.

Editors possess a unique creative power to manipulate and arrange shots, allowing them to craft a cinematic experience that engages, entertains, and emotionally connects with the audience. Film editing is a distinct art form within the filmmaking process, enabling filmmakers to realize their vision and bring stories to life on the screen. </p><p> According to writer-director <a href="/wiki/Preston_Sturges" title="Preston Sturges">Preston Sturges</a>: </p><blockquote><p>[T]here is a law of natural cutting and that this replicates what an audience in a legitimate theater does for itself. The more nearly the film cutter approaches this law of natural interest, the more invisible will be his cutting. If the camera moves from one person to another at the exact moment that one in the legitimate theatre would have turned his head, one will not be conscious of a cut. If the camera misses by a quarter of a second, one will get a jolt. There is one other requirement: the two shots must be approximate of the same tone value. If one cuts from black to white, it is jarring. At any given moment, the camera must point at the exact spot the audience wishes to look at. To find that spot is absurdly easy: one has only to remember where one was looking at the time the scene was made.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Assistant_editors">Assistant editors</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_editing&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Assistant editors"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Assistant editors aid the editor and director in collecting and organizing all the elements needed to edit the film.

Editors of large budget features will usually have a team of assistants working for them. The first assistant editor is in charge of this team and may do a small bit of picture editing as well, if necessary. Assistant editors are responsible for collecting, organizing, and managing all the elements needed for the editing process. This includes footage, sound files, music tracks, visual effects assets, and other media assets. They ensure that everything is properly labeled, logged, and stored in an organized manner, making it easier for the editor to access and work with the materials efficiently. Assistant editors serve as a bridge between the editing team and other departments, facilitating communication and collaboration. They often work closely with the director, editor, visual effects artists, sound designers, and other post-production professionals, relaying information, managing deliverables, and coordinating schedules. Often assistant editors will perform temporary sound, music, and visual effects work. The other assistants will have set tasks, usually helping each other when necessary to complete the many time-sensitive tasks at hand. In addition, an apprentice editor may be on hand to help the assistants. An apprentice is usually someone who is learning the ropes of assisting.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Television shows typically have one assistant per editor. This assistant is responsible for every task required to bring the show to the final form. Lower budget features and documentaries will also commonly have only one assistant. Higher budget films and shows tend to have more than one assistant editor, and in some cases, there can be a full team of assistants. </p><p>The organizational aspects job could best be compared to database management. When a film is shot, every piece of picture or sound is coded with numbers and <a href="/wiki/Timecode" title="Timecode">timecode</a>.

When the cut is finished, it is the assistant's job to bring the film or television show "online". They create lists and instructions that tell the picture and sound finishers how to put the edit back together with the high-quality original elements. Assistant editing can be seen as a career path to eventually becoming an editor. Many assistants, however, do not choose to pursue advancement to the editor, and are very happy at the assistant level, working long and rewarding careers on many films and television shows.<sup
