RESEARCH: Match On Action

Research: Match on Action

Match on action refers to a film editing technique where the editor cuts from one shot to another view that matches the first shot's action. Although the two shots may have actually been shot hours apart from each other, cutting on action gives the impression of continuous time when watching the edited film. By having a actor\actress begin an action in one shot and carry it through to completion, it prevents continuity errors happening.
