Editing is a very powerful tool of film, just like acting it can either make or break a film. It is a way to direct the audience through a given situation, and keep them from getting confused. You know editing is good when you do not become aware of it, cutting between scenes should not make you question what happened. Bad editing will make you ask what just happened, and lose your attention. One common problem with, editing is cutting, short cuts are more memorable, but harder to understand for the audience, longer cuts are not very memorable, but do not confuse the audience as much.
I think the information given in this article is super useful, I never knew how important editing is, especially because it keeps you inside the world that is created, and not let you get distracted. Next year in film i will definitely use editing to wisely to keep my audience un-distracted. I really like that they express the importance of short cuts and long cuts, because I believe a lot of new movies have too many short cuts and I get lost and lose interest.
