To edit our film in final cut we had to put transitions. Transitions are moving swiftly from one scene to the

The cut: The cut is the most basic editing technique that can be used. The cut is where a length of film is
divided at one point and joined to another.
Dissolve: One image slowly fades out as another one comes into focus
Wipe: Black screen is introduced at one end of the image and taking out the image by drawing it across the
image by going black or introducing a new scene.

dialogue, cuts to the 2nd actor to react then back to the original actor.
