2. CONTINUITY EDITING
 Rules:
 Match on action
 Establishing shot
 180 rule
 Definition: a system of cutting shots to maintain a continuous and clear
narrative action by following a set of rules

3. MONTAGE EDITING
 Montage editing is a style that deals with sots assembled by the means
of dissolves, fades and jump cuts.

4. SHOT REVERSE SHOT
 Two shots are edited together that alternate characters, typically used
in a conversation. Also it will not always be filmed in the correct order but
will be edited afterwards to flow together.

5. MATCH ON ACTION
 A cut between two shots that places two different framings of the same
action next to each other, making it seem to continue uninterrupted.

6. TRANSITIONS
 A transition is a method or process of joining a certain amount of
scenes from a shot. There are 8 main transitions used in editing but
typically fade, dissolve and cuts are the most used.

7. FADE, DISSOLVE AND CUT.
 Fade is a transition that occurs when a shot gradually fades to create a
single colour, normally black or white. In films this is created by a change
in the exposure, which is known as a fade in/fade out transition.
 Dissolve is a transition that occurs when a shot gradually moves from
one image to another.
 Cut is a transition that happens abruptly from one shot to the next.
