English term or phrase: smash cut
Definition from New York Film Academy:
An abrupt cut from one scene to another without a smooth transition.

Example sentence(s):
  • The impact of a smash cut is strengthened when it juxtaposes two scenes with wildly different tones. For instance, horror films often use the jarring nature of a smash cut to transition from a gruesome in-progress murder scene to a happy or peaceful moment. MasterClass
  • If you’ve got a loud scene that immediately goes to a quiet scene or vice versa, this is where you’d use the smash cut. You want to use it when you’re transitioning between two completely different scenes, emotions, or narratives and you need to make an abrupt transition. Pond5 blog
  • Suddenly, there is a visual and an audio smash cut to introduce Samuel L. Jackson’s character: the visual smash cut is created by going from the girl dancing, with music background, to a close up of a clock. Introduction to Film & Media Studies

taiere smash


Definition from Wiki:
O cut-smash este o tehnică din film și alte imagini în mișcare în care o scenă se tăie brusc la alta pentru scop estetic, narativ sau emoțional. În acest scop, de obicei, tăierea se produce într-un moment crucial într-o scenă în care o tăiere nu ar fi de așteptat.

Example sentence(s):
  • O varietate specifică de tăietură smash este cunoscută în Statele Unite ca o tăietură Gilligan , astfel numită pentru emisiunea TV Insula Gilligan, care înfățișa frecvent un personaj dat, declarând cu hotărâre intențiile sale imediat înainte de tăierea unei scene reprezentând personajul care face exact opus. - Wiki
