Editing

Continuity editing: 

Continuity editing gives the viewer the impression that the action unfolds with consistency. it is a system used to maintain continuous and clear narrative action by following a set of rules. 

Jump cut: 

This type of edit gives the effect of jumping forwards in time. a jump cut is where two sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions that vary only slightly.

Montage:

 A montage is an editing technique in which shots are juxtaposed in an often fast-paced fashion that compresses time and conveys a lot of information in a relatively short period.

Shot Reverse shot:

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

Eyeline match:

The eyeline match begins with a character looking at something off-screen, followed by a cut to the object or person at which he is looking. the eyeliner match is so the audience will see what the character is seeing.

Parallel editing & cross cutting:

Parallel editing and cross cutting is the technique of alternating two or more scenes that often happen simultaneously but in different locations. If the scenes are simultaneous, they occasionally culminate in a single place, where the relevant parties confront each other.

 Transitions:

 Cut: 

 The most basic and common type of transition is the cut. A cut happens when one shot instantly replaces the other. Cuts are so widely used that feature movies normally count thousands of them.

Fade in/out: 

Fade ins and fade outs are the second most common type of transition. Fade outs happen when the picture is gradually replaced by black screen or any other solid color. Traditionally, fade outs have been used to conclude movies. Fade in is the opposite. 

Dissolve:

Also known as overlapping, dissolves happen when one shot gradually replaces by the next. One disappears as the following appears.
