What is a "J-cut"?
A J-cut is an editing technique where the audio from the next scene begins before the visual transition to that scene. This means that viewers hear the sound from the upcoming scene while still seeing the current one. The visual transition then follows, allowing the sound to bridge the gap and create a smooth, cohesive flow between scenes. J-cuts are used to enhance narrative continuity, build anticipation, or smoothly connect disparate scenes.
