j cuts and l cuts

L cuts – as caracter A continues their dialogue the scene cuts to character B, this helps the viewers hear the dialogue while also seeing the reaction of character B

J cuts- This is the opposite of the L cut, with this technique the viewer hears the dialogue from characteer A but only sees character B on screen (this provides emotional information and context) then cuts back to character A
