Abstract:
Editing is a very important process in making films. Editing helps convey a message to the
audience through pieces of scenes that have been arranged into a unified story. Editors try to
utilize one element in editing, namely match cuts. A match cut is often used to maintain
continuity in the scene so that shots shown in movies look continuous. Match cut itself is a very
important editing technique in film production because it can help connect different scenesor
situations in a story, show changes in time or location, and create relationships between
characters and objects in the story. Therefore, the editor was interested in taking the theory
sparked by Edwin S. Porter and Pudkovin who continued G.W. Griffith's work on three-match
cuts. To transition to differences in space and time in the film titled "Kala" to create a change
in atmosphere between one scene to the next.
