Parallel editing (cross cutting) is the technique of alternating two or more scenes that often happen simultaneously but in different locations.
Point of view shot- Is a short film scene that showsthe characterbeing represented through thecamera.Itshowsthe reaction of thecharacterand there reaction.(There point of view)
Reverseshot- where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other.

The History and developments of post production
Post production is everything in and around film making. This includes in camera editing,following the action,multiple points of view,shot variation,film and video. These are just some of the examples which go into film making.
This includes tasks such as the editing of raw footage to cut scenes, insert transition effects, working with voice and sound actors, and dubbing, to name a few of the many pre-production tasks. Post-production is the third and final step in film creation
The post pruduction of the film usually takes alot longer then the actual filming. This is because the editing stage is very tedious and can take several months to complete.

Notes
Film and editing
The first edited piece was called "Life as a firemen".
The first ever editing machines were referred to as "sewing machines" The reason for this was not only did it look like a sewing machine but generally women use to use them. In this sexist day and age being an editer was a womans job and didn't seem like a particully important job in the film industry.
It takes about 8months to a year to edit a whole film. Generally films were and are still today 2 hours long and was made up of 5000 frames.
A term was made called "cutting seemless" This was introduced as films didn't seem to run naturally and we noticed the cuts. So these were introducedto let the film flow and for the audience to not notice the edits and cuts.
