My idea for the girl at the bar transition was this: she goes outside, is looking at her reflection not in the window, but a puddle in the gutter. She’s wallowing in self pity. A car is speeding by, we see the fear in her eyes as it’s about to barrel into the water and splash her. The car gets closer and closer, and just as it hits the water, MATCH CUT to her splashing water in her face in her home bathroom. It’s morning time and birds are chirping. Here we have a nice match cut of water -> water, also we go from reflection in the puddle -> reflection in the bathroom mirror. It also has contrast in that it goes from night time, the misery of the night topped off with more misfortune, to the water now representing a fresh start as part of a quiet, new day. 👍🏽

my first thought was to show the character looking at their reflection but the camera is inside the bar still. With all that noise going. But to show the character was looking at their reflection instead of the people in the bar is the next shot is of the character looking at themselves in a mirror the next morning with the powerful silence.

My version: She walks out the bar and looks at her reflection in the glass. Cut to: Her 95yr old face as she lies dead in a nursing home bed, her eyes rolled back, oxygen line in her nose and the heart monitor sounds her flat lined. A white sheet is pulled over her face. Fade to black and roll credits.

As you asked me to pause and think about the transition, I did and here is what i thought - After being unable to impress the boy who was flirting with her at the bar, The scene cuts to day, where the protagnist is at the zebra crossing, waiting for the vehicles to pass. Beside her on the left is a couple, merrily talking to each other, as the protagnist shares a greedy and defeated glance. As the signal turns green, an old lady on the left asks her if she could help her crossing the road. The protagnist unwillingly, staring uncomfortablly at the lady's wrinkled face, helps her to cross the road. This is what came to my mind, Helpful video btw!!!

A more on-the-nose but relatable cut could be her looking at her reflection in the glass to her in her pj’s the next morning putting on the creams and serums of her skincare routine in the bathroom. Could turn that into a match cut from reflection to reflection, but taking that second shot out of her first person perspective feels like a softer approach. Or you could switch which shot is in first person perspective. Might even be stronger if we’re watching her in the night shot and we are her in the day shot.

That transition you talk about 8 minutes always throws me off. When you see a character doing something in one scene and in the very next scene time has passed, but the scene starts with a similar shot of the same character doing something else. Hard to describe what's wrong with it, but it feels wrong.

I loved the video, but the "negative space" analogy did not land for me. In portraits -- using your example -- the negative space is inside the borders of the canvas. In the case of a scene, in the same way, the negative space would have to be inside the borders of the scene itself. Transitions are located on the borders of scenes, not inside of it. Therefore, an effective analogy about negative space applied to a movie scene would have to take place between elements that exist inside of the scene itself. The silence between each line of dialogue, the blank space around the subject of a particular shot, etc. Transitions are more related to liminal spaces than negative spaces, that is, if we're talking about spaces. A transition exposes the relationship between each scene in a liminal way, like, in kind of a meta way. The transition points to the "space" between each scene, but the space isn't actually there. There's no actual space between scenes, there are cuts. The cuts are like the borders of the canvas of a portrait, but unlike a picture, the current scene shares one of it's borders with the previous scene and another with the next one. The transition deals with this fact. That's why your analogy didn't land for me.

Hm hmm .. but why even (attempt to) apply the concept of negative space to cuts, when there isn't any space there at all, none, zero, nada ? More generally, why assimilate a particular kind of cut (match or contrast) to transitions, and consider such a cut as a special kind of transition ? Doesn't a cut, of any kind, just end one shot and begin the next one, without any transition in between, as the word itself seems to scream ??
