SUPERIMPOSITIONSuperimposition in video editing refers to combining two or more pieces footage together to create a single video. This means overlaying the first video on top of another video, then allowing both to be seen on the same frame by altering their opacity.

CUTTING>>>
GRAPHIC MATCH
Is a cut between either two different objects, two different spaces, or two different compositions in which an object in the two shots graphically match, often helping to establish a strong continuity of action and linking the two shots metaphorically.

PARALLEL EDITING
A device of narrative construction in which the development of two pieces of action are presented simultaneously. Often to reach an important climax.

ACTION MATCH
Perspective of the camera changes to create a continuous editing shot.

JUMP CUT
Two sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions slightly vary. This causes the subject of the shots to appear to "jump" position in a discontinuous way.

CROSS CUTTING
To demonstrate action happening at the same time in two different scenes. Similar to parallel editing.

CUTAWAY AND CUT IN SHOTS
A shot away from the main scene and a shot close up in the scene.

GENERAL TERMS>>>
CONTINUITY EDITING
Predominant style of film editing and video editing in film and television. The purpose of continuity editing is to smooth over the inherent discontinuity of the editing process; it establishes a coherence between shots.

180’ Rule
MONTAGE EDITING
Series of shots edited to condense time, space & information.

LONG TAKE & SHORT TAKE
Long: An uninterrupted shot in a film which lasts much longer than the conventional editing pace either of the film itself or of films in general. It usually lasts several minutes. It can be used for dramatic and narrative effect.
Short: Used in montage, rapid edits from shot to shot. Opposite of long take.
SLOW MOTION
Emphasises a scene...reduces the pace.

ELLIPSIS
It is an apparent break in natural time continuity as it is implied in the film's story.

EXPANSION OF TIME
The same shot can be shown from multiple angles and repeated...common in sports shots.
POST-PRODUCTION VISUAL EFFECTS
Occurs after the actual end of shooting. Post production also includes:
•Video editing
•Sound effects
•Soundtrack
Visual effects done by green screen...
