1.) Pan: When the camera moves horizontally across the screen from either right to left or left to right. An example of panning is seen towards the end of Desperately Seeking Susan when Susan and the antagonist come through the window. The camera pans from Roberta to the window, revealing the action taking place.
2.) Subjective Camera: When the camera is used to model the point of view of a specific character. This is seen towards the beginning of Desperately Seeking Susan when Roberta looks through the viewfinder n hopes of ‘seeking’ Susan.
3.) Bridging Shot: A shot used to bridge a gap in time in the film. This is seen at the very end of Desperately Seeking Susan when the newspaper headlines reveal that Susan and Roberta had given the missing earrings to the museum for money.
4.) Montage: The editing of scenes together in order to tell a simple narrative or convey an idea. This is seen at the beginning of Desperately Seeking Susan when both Susan and Roberta are viewing the personal ad and traveling to the park.
5.) Continuity Cut: This is a cut that logically takes the view from one scene to the next in an uninterrupted fashion. This can be seen in Desperately Seeking Susan when Roberta is in the jail. Her husband finds out and ventures to bail her out.
