Anybody know the diffrence between match cuts and transitions?

[@adithyan9263]

match cuts are smooth transitions like za one in tis video . Transitions exist in a lot of varieties and a match cut is one of them like a fade or a wipe are also transitions. ull see many transitions if u have used PowerPoint to transition from one slide to another.

Match cuts are basically scene transitioning to a different scene while something/someone remains the same but at a different time/weather/event bla bla bla

[@UjjwalRanaWork]

Match cut is a type of transaction

[@user-bd6or7ps6x]

why isnt that a Smashcut?

[@mattservold2808]

I would say it counts as both! The transitions from the library to the house and the house to the street would definitely be considered smash cuts. The movement(s) carried over by Scott and Steven are the elements that result in it also being a match cut!

[@JjaijesS]

I think it might also have something to do with the way that the dialogue/conversation continues from scene to scene, rather than those more smash cut style transitions that might introduce a new diegetic sound(s) to boost a new transition in the story
