Cutaway












My interpretation of a Cutaway shot is when a scene is interrupted by a cut showing a completely different scene occurring, often used with a lethargic atmosphere as it may show someone reminiscing or remembering the past, or this may be used often for humorous effect.

The result is unlike a normal cutaway, the scene showing a seemingly alien planet is scanned over before cutting away to the character reminiscing of this location. This gives a lethargic atmosphere to the scene and adds an element of mystery as the audience wants to know more.
