Definition: This is a popular scene cut wherein an element of one scene is used in the transition to the next scene, with the purpose of creating a visual connection for two different scenes that are not directly associated with each other, such as scenes taken from different locations.

“Let’s do a match cut for the scene where he travels from one city to another.”
