Editing in The Shining In his classic horror film, The Shining, Stanley Kubrick uses many different elements of editing to create unique and terrifying scenes. Kubrick relies on editing to further the overall terrifying and terrifying feeling created in the film. The editing in the film creates many different effects, but the most notable effects created add to the continuity of the film as well as the sense of fear and terror. One scene in particular stands out as a masterfully edited moment in the film. In this scene, Wendy and Danny Torrance leave the inside of the hotel to go outside and explore the giant hedge maze. Wendy and Danny both run excitedly as they dig deeper and deeper into the huge maze. The scene then cuts to a shot of Jack throwing a ball in the hotel lobby out of boredom. He approaches a three-dimensional model of the labyrinth that sits on a table in the lobby. The camera then pans to a close-up of the maze model, and the audience sees what appear to be miniature versions of Wendy and Danny exploring the hedge maze's many corridors. The audience can hear Wendy and Danny talking, and this helps assist the allusion of Jack watching the two go through the maze.
