In Shaun of the Dead, there are two parts that include quick cutting. When Shaun goes upstairs to get ready, we see fast shots of what people normally do to get ready like using the bathroom and brushing their teeth. This editing style is used again not too far after the first one to show him making breakfast. The editor/director most likely used this technique to show the passing of time but quickly so that the scene isn’t too long. The viewer uses context clues to figure out that he is getting ready for work and making breakfast.
