Kuleshov Effect : The Kuleshov Effect is a film editing effect demonstrated by Russian filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in the 1910's and 1920's. The younger director and theorist Lev Kuleshov, who believed in the central importance of editing to the filmmaking process, ran an influential workshop there that helped to birth montage theory. Classically, it's basically what editing is about in film; you create meaning by placing shots next to each other and then watch as they influence each other.
