Question

an editor’s control of ________ can determine the pace or rhythm of a movie.

○ duration

○ the kuleshov effect

○ discontinuity

○ music

Explanation:

The duration of each shot (how long a shot is on screen) directly controls the pace and rhythm of a film. Shorter shots create a faster pace, while longer shots slow it down. The Kuleshov effect relates to how editing creates meaning from juxtaposed shots, discontinuity refers to jarring edits that break continuity, and music is a separate audio element, not an editing control of the film's visual timing.

Answer:

A. duration
