Editing
Film editing is part of the process of film making. It involves the selection and combining of shots into sequences, and ultimately creating a finished motion picture. It is an art of storytelling. Film editing is the only art that is unique to cinema, separating film-making from other art forms that preceded it (such as photography, theater, dance, writing, and directing), although there are close parallels to the editing process in other art forms like poetry or novel writing. Film editing is often referred to as the “invisible art”[citation needed] because when it is well-practiced, the viewer can become so engaged that he or she is not even aware of the editor’s work and or name.
