BLOG QUESTION: MONTAGE TECHNIQUES

What are three concepts from this article that you can incorporate into your future montage edit? Why did you pick these three? How can you apply them in the edit?

Three concepts from this article that I can incorporate into my future montage edit are cutting on action, linking two scenes together by using the previous scene to connect to the storyline of a next scene,  and L cutting. I picked these three because I feel like they're either less noticeable cuts or they make transitions from one scene to another more cohesive rather than abrupt. I can apply cutting on action on scenes that may be particularly fast paced with objects in motion (such as a chase scene), I can link two scenes to introduce another storyline (cross-cutting) without having it seem to abrupt, and I can use L cutting for the same reason, but preferably to transition from a quieter scene to a louder scene (or a scene that has a distinct sound).
