Today I decided to look up the editing used in 1941 horror 'Citizen Kane' produced by Orson Wells. It is "an acknowledged milestone in the development of cinematic technique" - http://www.filmsite.org/bestfilmediting3.html
It used many techniques that Della and I are looking at (flash-forwards and a non-linear storyline). It also uses a lot of transitions for example dissolve or curtain wipes as well as both long, extended shots juxtaposed with short, sharp shots to build tension (like what we're intending on doing with the date scene and the short shots of the forest running scenes).
