A jump cut is a transition between two shots which appears to "jump" due to the way the shots are framed in relation to each other. It breaks continuity and draws attention to the constructucted nature of the film and makes viewers question the reasons behind this.
Jump shots add tension and impact when use correctly.
We chose to start out trailer with jump shot editing as we didn't want out trailer to follow the story continuously as a trailer is just a teaser of the main events in a film. A jump shot allows things to become ambiguous and allows readers to consider many different possibilities. We recorded a short amount of film and edited it also.
