A jump cut is when you cut a section from the middle of a clip. When you watch your clip back it looks like you have jumped forwards in time. Jump cuts are essential to YouTube video editing because they help remove distractions from your videos. Use jump cuts to get rid of repetition, anything off topic, or periods of silence.

Here is how to the Jump Cut tutorial in Filmora video editor:
Open up Filmora and add a clip to the timeline.

Play your clip and pause when you hear a sound, then go back frame by frame until the sound is gone. Use the scissors icon to make a cut.

You can use jump cuts creatively in your videos by making a change and then cutting out how it happened. This makes it seem as if objects are appearing or disappearing.

Try to keep your videos around three minutes or less. Shorter videos get more views, so shortening your videos is a great reason to make jump cuts.
