It consists of a pair of rewind reels and stands and a viewer for selecting places to cut. and then faded out. A new shot of the next stage is taken with the object in exactly the same place and faded in. When the two films are properly printed in the optical printer, one fades away as the new one emerges from the old object. Dancing is par- ticularly well helped by this effect since a cut from a long to a close-up shot is often disturbing because of the sudden transition in the middle of a delicate dance. The actual mechanics of film editing will now be discussed from the point of view of the beginning worker. For the time being it will be assumed that titles are to be considered later so as to keep the issue clear. In many cases, the choice of titles is left with the editor. For effective and efficient work the proper tools are required. Many companies manufacture all the equipment needed and gen- erally speaking one make is as good as another so that the inclu- sion or omission of any particular make is not an indication of quality but is caused by the need to be economical with space. The one point to watch is to make sure that whatever equipment is bought, it is strong enough to stand up to continuous work.
