Talk:Fast cutting

Proposed merge with hip hop montage

Oppose - hip hop montage refers to footage which is specifically fast motion (as in the opposite of slow motion). You can argue that it's a subset of fast cutting because it also tends to employ fast cutting as well, although I'm not certain that this is uniformly the case.

From what little is actually said on the subject, it appears that it is actually a subset [1]. Both articles refer to the technique used in the same examples, and that one link I found refers to the "hip hop montage" as a jump cut. I'd say that's enough to make it a sub section on this article. Radagast83 18:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccurate Use of Film Terms

Fast cutting is the act of cutting quickly from one image to another. It is a common technique used in many films and television shows and has not been most recently used in Requiem for a Dream, but rather is used mostly to quickly jump from one shot to another.[vimal sm]
