Chaining
Definition
A technical or artistic method of linking or rapidly and continuously sequencing two scenes, frames, lines, or activities without a break, or with this interruption masked through a transition effect (such as a dissolve or audio crossfade). In film and television directing, this structural arrangement ensures the fluidity of the visual discourse and maintains the narrative dynamism of the cinematic work.
