Parallel Editing

Parallel editing is a film editing technique that refers to the simultaneous depiction of two or more events that are occurring simultaneously but in different locations. This technique is also known as cross-cutting or intercutting.

In parallel editing, the editor cuts back and forth between two or more scenes, showing different actions or events happening in different places. This creates a sense of tension and suspense, as the viewer sees the events unfold simultaneously and is left wondering how they will intersect or affect each other.

One of the most famous examples of parallel editing can be seen in the shower scene from Alfred Hitchcock's film "Psycho" (1960). The scene cuts back and forth between shots ____ _______ _________ ___ ______ __________ ________ ______.
