Putting the Shots Together The editor juxtaposes a
variety of shots so that the interrelationships between them are made obvious.
For example, consider cause and effect: the action in the first shot, A, is
concluded in the second shot, B, or perhaps is drawn out over a series of B, C
and D shots. The editing must show clearly that A causes B, or that logically B
follows A. Of course, when viewers see a collection of images they will
automatically try to construct a cause and effect relationship on their own
even if the images are not obviously related.
