Actor Dictionary | Line Cut

This is a term used in the sitcom arena. When filming a multi-cam sitcom, it will shoot in chronological order in front of a live audience. The director often works with a recordist who uses a video switcher to make an in-the-moment edited version of the live show, much like a sporting event being edited live.

This also serves as a template for editors who begin splice together the show after the taping wraps.
