    Posted by Nathan Wilkson on November 2, 2011 at 4:23 am

    Hi I have a simple question:

    I want to accomplish an affect where one scene melds into another. Say you’re in a house and then the camera pans quick to the left and all of a sudden you’re at the beach. The best example of what I’m talking about that I can think of is from this music video at around 3:50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8Y1MalRrDc

    My question is if there is a common name for this technique so that I can research how to do it properly? or could someone explain to me how this is accomplished with good results?

    Thanks a ton,

    N

    All of the shots around 3:50 are cuts. The edit between the beach and the interior is the one I think you’re talking about. It’s a cut from a tie off to a tilting shot.
