---------------------------------
Who is responsible for the scene transitions you see in the movies? The writer or the director?
And how do you decide on what to end a scene with?
Sometimes the job is to make the transition seamless, while at other times you want to draw attention to it.
In this 1-hour masterclass, story developer and screenwriting lecturer Karel Segers opens up the can of worms on this topic, and makes an attempt at semi-academic categorisation.
Your comments are welcome below!

I'm currently writing the script of a shortfilm and I had questions about transitions. As you explain, I come up with ideas to level up my narrative. Thanks a lot for your time and the experience you share. Greetings from Mexico!

@TheStoryDepartment Год назад

Thank you for your comment, Alonso. Good luck with the short script!

I'm sure I have seen the Q&A transitions hundreds of times and not thought about it but in 2018 Avengers Infinity War when Dr Strange asks "where is he now?" referring to Thor and it cuts to Thor - it was so on the nose, I have been infatuated with Q&A transitions ever since

@TheStoryDepartment 3 месяца назад

Yes! It's so easy and so effective. Why not subscribe? There's more good videos coming! Cheers, Karel

usually don't write anything unless the transition is part of the narrative context. Yes ok it always is, but sometimes it is more than others.

@TheStoryDepartment 23 дня назад

Hey Renato, Thank you for the comment. Totally in agreement with you. What I didn't sufficiently emphasise is the need for continuity, and the importance of continuity in the transition. Have you seen the latest video? Your comment would have applied in that context, too. ;) Cheers, Karel

Hello can we write different actions in a scene using cut to. Example: if a person writing a story , then he cleaning the room, dress changing , switch off light and open door and going out . Can we write this as follows , Scene 1 Room Int/Day Man writing a story ------Cut to------- Int/Day Man cleaning the room. -------cut to-------- Int/Day Man dress changing -------cut to-------- Int/Day Man switching off the light and open the door and go out. Reply please.......

If day and setting remain the same, you could use either "LATER" - written as action - or CUT TO: The former is probably the most elegant solution in my view.
