Motivated editing

Motivated editing is a form of editing that movitates what you see or what you hear, so it basincally means when something is not frame, you will see that something appear or hear it in the next cut. They used this kind of editing in horror films, you see a shot of a woman or man walking through the forest in the night a, and then the next thing you hear a crack of a wood, suggesting that there is something in the woods and then it cuts to the place where the sound is. Here's a clip from "Freedy vs Jason" that has motivated editing between 02:54 - 04:03



In this scene, you see the girl whose about to swim in the lake and then there's was a noise in the woods and it cuts to a POV shot , it illudes the audience thinking that the killer or someone in the woods.
