Montage and continuity editing


We have began to look at the two main types of editing: Montage and Continuity. Continuity is the type of editing most commonly used in Hollywood movies, where editing follows a storyline. There are few jumps in the narative. However Montage is the complete opposite, where lots of different shots and clips are mixed together. In this style, the narrative can switch location, costume, or be just completly random.
