What is a "cutaway"?
A cutaway is an editing technique where the film briefly switches from the main action or subject to a different, related shot, often showing something that provides additional context or information. This secondary shot, called a "cutaway," can highlight details, reactions, or elements that are important to the story but not part of the main action. After the cutaway, the film returns to the original scene, enhancing the narrative by adding depth or clarifying aspects of the story.
