Transition from one shot to another shot
A cut is used to describe the clean break dividing one shot and another. The terms
‘dissolves’ and ‘fades’ refer to the way in which one frame fades out whilst the other is
dissolved in, with no clear cut between the shots.
Shot duration
The average shot is 1.38 seconds per shot. However, we are capable of seeing three shots per minute.

Sound effects
There are many sound effects used in adverts: some are more obvious than others. The obvious sound effects are jingles: songs which incorporate lyrics explaining the virtues and features of a particular product.
