A match cut is a film editing technique that connects two different shots by using visual or auditory similarities to create a seamless transition. The connection can be based on objects, shapes, actions, or even sound, and is used to create thematic links, convey continuity, or evoke a specific emotion.

First Attempt

This video uses a movement match cut to create a smooth transition between scenes. But it’s technically not a match cut so I view why it wasn’t and then tried again.

Second Attempt

This video I used inspiration from a movie scene that is shown above. This is graphic match cut as the scenes are visually similar and create a traction to the next scene.
