Cut

Cut - This is an abrupt, but usually trivial film transition from one sequence to another. It is synonymous with the termedit, though "edit" can imply any number of transitions or effects. The cut, dissolve and wipe serve as the three primary transitions. The term refers to the physical action of cutting film or videotape, but also refers to a similar edit performed in software; it has also become associated with the resulting visual "break".



In this clip at 4:10, a cut is used between the two scenes to spit them up and transition from one to the other.
