The techniques of film language areas important to video and multimedia presentations as the techniques of written language are to technical documentation. Film language consists of such components as shot content, frame composition, camera movement, color (or shade), lighting, and film transitions.

In developing videos for training or informational purposes, we should respect and understand the significance of film transitions and other aspects of film language.
