One of two dominant theories of conveying information in the cinema where conveying information is done by juxtaposing one image with another to produce a third idea. After D.W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation and Intolerance?, the early Russian filmmakers took up this approach to film communication. It seemed to agree with their revolutionary ideas and seemed to be the perfect artistic expression of the [Hegelian Dialectic]?. (See also the Kuleshov Experiment.)

Various techniques in film editing include:

- cross cutting
- cutaway
- [cut in]?
- [cut out]?
- establishing shot
- insert
- master shot
- point of view shot
- [sequence shot]?
- shot reverse shot
