Történetátmenet

Történetátmenet is a Hungarian term that translates to "story transition" or "narrative transition" in English. It refers to the technique or moment in storytelling where one scene, event, or plotline concludes and another begins. This transition serves to guide the audience smoothly from one part of the narrative to the next, maintaining coherence and flow.

Effective történetátmenet can be achieved through various methods. These include visual cues such as fades, dissolves, or abrupt cuts in film and television, or the use of connecting phrases, ellipses, or shifts in focus in written narratives. The purpose is to signal a change in time, location, perspective, or emotional tone without jarring the audience.

A well-executed történetátmenet can enhance the pacing and overall impact of a story. It can create suspense, foreshadow future events, or provide a moment of reflection. Conversely, a poorly managed transition can disrupt the narrative's immersion, confuse the audience, or diminish the emotional resonance of the story. The term emphasizes the deliberate and often skillful construction required to move a story forward from one point to another.
