Miller, T. & Stam, R. 2004 A Companion to Film Theory, Blackwell Publishing, Carlton: Melbourne.

In the chapter Film Editing in A Companion to Film Theory, Miller initiates his pedagogy by outlining the two types of editing: 1- the process of selecting, assembling and arranging shots and; 2- the editing techniques in the finished film that determine the relations between shots. Miller outlines the various types of editing and the progression of editing techniques historically in the film industry. The chapter is useful to my research and it also extends upon the previous source’s psychological inferences as editing in relation to the psyche and cognition is proposed; therefore, my research leads towards the psychological and philosophical motivations between the relations of shot-to-shot editing.
