In order to realize the smooth transition of the lens, similar factors (subject image, sound, motion, etc. ) as a medium. Similarity factor transformation shots are usually used for shot transformation between front and back shots and scenes, also known as similarity volume transformation.

1. Same or similar theme images

2. Similarity of sound elements

3. Similar behavior

4. A special case of similar element switching: shading or shading lens switching.

In the last scene of the war, an ape threw a bone. The next shot is a spaceship. The matching fragments are ingenious, and express the director's intention through sharp contrast: the tools or bones of human origin have been replaced by spaceships.

Second, the late skill category matching of matching fragments

Category matching mainly refers to a wide range of category grouping. Shooting themes or themes of the same category can be combined together, so that the audience's thinking will not jump or be confused. Category matching can be whole matching or link matching.

For example:

The whole game: Iron Man-Spider-Man-Hulk-Captain America

Link matching: Iron Man Generation-Iron Man Generation II-Iron Man Generation III

The camera moves in the same direction.

If the material is mainly moving the lens, push, pull, shake, move, follow, up and down.

The above is an introduction to the post-editing skills of matching clips. I hope it can help us formulate and determine our own post-editing style, which is very important.
