Match on action. - Stephen Craddock

Match on action is an editing technique which is used for stability in editing in which one shot cuts to another shot revealing the action of the issue in the first shot. This creates the sense of continuity as the action present on the screen creates a visual bridge which draws the viewers attention. Match on action portrays a continuous sense of the same action because the same action by the character should be the same when moving into the next shot.
