What is a shot?
A shot is a series of frames, that runs for an uninterrupted period of time.
Film shots are an essential aspect of a movie where angles, transitions and cuts are used to further express emotion, ideas and movement.
In production, a shot is the moment that the camera starts rolling until the moment it stops.
In film editing, a shot is the continuous footage or sequence between two edits or cuts.
