Jump Cuts, Over-the-Shoulder Shots, Cutaway and Point of View Shots

Jump Cut - A cut to later action from one filmed scene to the next, creating an effect of discontinuity or acceleration.


Over-the-Shoulder Shots - A shot that gives us a character's point of view but that includes part of that character's shoulder or the side of the head in the shot.


Cutaway - A brief shot that interrupts the main action of a film, often to depict related matter or supposedly concurrent action.


Point of View Shots - A short scene in a film that shows what a character is looking at. It is usually established by being positioned between a shot of a character looking at something, and a shot showing the character's reaction.
