An abrupt edit, cutting from one shot to another almost exactly like it. Very jarring to the viewer. (Sometimes, this jarring quality is a deliberate choice on the part of the filmmaker; see the examples below.) To avoid this, the editor will usually cut away, then cut back to the second shot, with a Reaction Shot or other coverage in between. Can happen in live studio settings, when two cameras are focused on the same person or object. Switching directly from one to the other creates a jump cut. In an interview, a single lengthy response must often be time compressed. Since the interview subject is often held in a single long shot, the cut must be covered. This can be done by cutting in illustrative footage (called B-Roll), cutting to a Reaction Shot of the interviewer, or by using a fast dissolve or wipe instead of a hard cut. Note the scarcity of examples; jump cuts are considered big no-nos by most directors and avoided by most Hollywood editors. Inadvertent examples can often be found in the atrocious B movies picked-apart by MST3K, as indicated above. In contrast, jump cuts are far more common in web videos. Sometimes it is because of difficulties of making a video with one continuous take. Sometimes it is done deliberately to retain viewer's attention, in which case jump cuts may be very frequent. Compare Smash Cut, a cutting technique of making scene changes deliberately abrupt; and Gilligan Cut, when it's done deliberately for comedy. |

Stuart Ashen: Dr. Ashen is a one-man, one-camera operation who films stuff on his couch or kitchen floor. Every time the doorbell rings or he sneezes on the camera he has to jump cut over it. He never fails to tell you why there's a cut, though, and it's always reasonable. Note that unplanned jump cuts come out of nowhere and in mid sentence ("ARGH! Jump cut!") and planned ones are called in advance ("Get ready for a jump cut...PING!"). One of the most notable was when he was examining a bootleg iPhone 5 and discovered it had a TV aerial. He bursts out laughing so hard that he has to cut to when he calms down. |

Parks and Recreation likes using jump cuts, which fits with it being a Mockumentary. The "real" reason for this is often to glue together a series of Throw It In! bits, such as with this scene. Another episode has a Confession Cam scene with a drunken Ann. As filmed, Rashida Jones paused between two lines, but when the episode was edited, the editor decided to turn the pause into a jump cut in order to give the impression Ann had been ranting for a long time. This is pointed out on the DVD Commentary for that episode. | |

In a Better World: Used intentionally several times in the film to underscore moments of high emotion, tension, or stress. One scene has two Jump Cuts with Marianne as she hovers panicked outside while the doctors operate on Elias. Another scene uses several Jump Cuts afterward, as Marianne is standing vigil over her unconscious son in his hospital bed. | |

Late silent-era film Desert Nights has a couple of peculiar jump cuts that play like something is missing from the surviving film. In any case, there's a shot of Diana the jewel thief telling her partner Steve that they should turn themselves in, followed by a Jump Cut to Steve holding a gun on Diana and their kidnap victim Hugh, followed by a Jump Cut to a shot of Steve leaving with all the stolen diamonds. | |

This is what Dream uses to skip most of the boring parts of his videos that would've otherwise been shown, therefore making the video longer.

raocow sometimes uses jump cuts in his Let's Play videos. Most often, this happens if he accidentally dies; he will let the character die and then jump-cut back to the same spot that he was at before dying. Sometimes, he will also jump-cut mid-sentence, making his already surreal voiceovers even more so. | |

Transformers: Armada used this, but not intentionally — the animation was simply rushed, so often they used the same background, even if the "camera" switched focus to another character. And there was also one bizarre scene, when they showed Thrust, suddenly jump cut to a totally random and pointless shot of the same background (but no Thrust), then back to the same image as before, with Thrust magically reappearing and continuing his thing. Nothing happened during that strange stray shot of the scenery. | |

The Lost episode "The Constant" involves such complicated editing that the editor takes part in the DVD commentary to discuss his choices. In two scenes, jump cuts are used as Desmond is banging on doors, suffering from time disorientation. The editor calls attention to the fact that jump cuts are usually considered horrible, but are used specifically to help the audience feel Desmond's disorientation. | |

Wheel of Fortune: It used to use these when the show still had its mechanical puzzle board. Every time the host said "Our category for this next round is...", there would be a jump cut from him to the puzzle board. What home viewers didn't see was the puzzle board getting pushed back into the studio with that round's puzzle freshly loaded in. Thanks to the electronic puzzle board first implemented in February 1997, such jump cuts are no longer needed. Nowadays, they edit out a Final Spin if it lands on anything other than a dollar amount, or a cycle of turns if it goes around the horn without affecting the outcome (e.g., three consecutive wrong letters/Lose a Turn/Bankrupt from a contestant with $0). Such cuts can usually be spotted by following the Wheel's position to that point. Also, if there is a jump cut to Pat during the Speed-Up, that means that three consecutive wrong letters were edited out. |

Mononoke uses these frequently, coupled with intentionally Deranged Animation and Mind Screw to cement its status as a surreal Psychological Horror series. For instance, in the first arc, there's a scene where the "camera" stays on the floor with a doll in the foreground, as a character walking down a corridor slowly jumps into the distance. At some point along the way, the doll turns to look after her during a cut. | |

Monty Python's Flying Circus: In the 'penguin intelligence' sketch, the script calls for a 'slight edit with jump visible' as the presenter closes discussion of one topic and moves to another. | |

Doctor... Series: Doctor in Clover: Just before Miles is sprayed with fire extinguisher foam, the film noticeably skips a second. Doctor in Trouble: When spots break out on Dr. Houston, it is clear that the film has been cut in places to allow for spots to be applied to Jimmy Thompson's face. |

Firefly: Utilized in the episode "Objects in Space", during the opening sequence of River reading the crew's mind; jump cuts are used to offset the crew's "thoughts" with the actual scene, as well as show River's disjointed mindset as she moves throughout the ship. Also used in one scene in the pilot, for a similar purpose. Joss Whedon sometimes portrays insanity by having an actor speak a monologue in several different styles and editing them together with many rapid jump cuts, intensifying the sensation of a character's mind breaking from reality. Used in Buffy, Firefly, and Dollhouse. Another example in "Objects in Space": when River is deconstructing Early's life and motives, there are several jump cuts between Early's serene face and shots of him gnashing his teeth and shaking his head in frustration, which is implied to be how he's really feeling at the moment. Again with River in Serenity when she wakes up... and then wakes up. |

Perfected in Marble Hornets where the cuts are created by either J creating them, Slender Man causing disturbances, or someone (totheark?) messing with the video. The latter two types are noticeably effective. | |
