Match on Action

Match on Action

Match on action (also known as cutting on action) is an editing technique for continuity editing, one shot cuts to another shot portraying the action from the subject in the first shot.
This creates the flow of continuity, the action being carried through created a 'visual bridge' this draws the viewers attention away from slight cutting or any continuity issues.
Furthermore it portrays a continuous sense of the same action rather than matching two separate things.





I then crested my own match on action scene, i walked through the door into a room and sat on the sofa. the way I made the continuity editing work was by using two cameras to film this quick scene, one on the outside and one inside the room. The cameras were both filming at the same time so the editing would flow.
