  2. Cross-cutting relationships - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-cutting_relationships

    For example, if a fault were truncated by an unconformity, and that unconformity cut by a dike. Based upon such compound cross-cutting relationships it can be seen that the fault is older than the unconformity which in turn is older than the dike. Using such rationale, the sequence of geological events can be better understood.

  3. Cross-cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-cutting

    Cross-cutting is an editing technique most often used in films to establish action occurring at the same time, and often in the same place. In a cross-cut, the camera will cut away from one action to another action, which can suggest the simultaneity of these two actions but this is not always the case. Cross-cutting can also be used for ...

  4. Relative dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_dating

    The principle of cross-cutting relationships pertains to the formation of faults and the age of the sequences through which they cut. Faults are younger than the rocks they cut; accordingly, if a fault is found that penetrates some formations but not those on top of it, then the formations that were cut are older than the fault, and the ones ...

    Cut An editorial transition signified by the immediate replacement of one shot with another. Cross-cutting Cutting between different events occurring simultaneously in different locations.

    An L-cut is when video and audio are edited asynchronously. For example, the sound of approaching cars in an interior shot alerts the viewer that the next scene will most likely involve traffic or take place outside. A jump cut is a cut, within the setting and time frame of a scene, where continuity is visibly broken. Though a mistake in many ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot/reverse_shot

    Shot/reverse shot (or shot/countershot) is a film technique where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character (a reverse shot or countershot).

  8. Fast cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_cutting

    Fast cutting is a film editing technique which refers to several consecutive shots of a brief duration (e.g. 3 seconds or less). [1] It can be used to quickly convey much information, or to imply either energy or chaos.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturmian_word

    The Fibonacci word is an example of a Sturmian word. The start of the cutting sequence shown here illustrates the start of the word 0100101001.. In mathematics, a Sturmian word (Sturmian sequence or billiard sequence [1]), named after Jacques Charles François Sturm, is a certain kind of infinitely long sequence of characters.
