Non Continuity editing is a style of editing that was made popular thought the 1950s and 1960s. Jean Luc Godard and Francois Truffaut were the two filmmakers that experienced with it and due to that they took this technique a step further, they created a new style called French New Wave. Most producers choose to use this type of editing because of its lack of continuity, its self reflexive nature, its does this by reminding the audience that they are not seeing real life, instead watching a film.
A Bout de Soufflé - Jean-Luc Goddard - Jump Cut
The video on the right uses non-continuity editing because the 180 degree rule was broke, the 180 degree rule is to make sure the characters on a certain film swap places, but this happened in this one because the guy with the red jacket started on the left and the butler was on the right, but at 0:19 they swapped places, the guy that was on the left is on the right and the one on the right changed to the left. This technique was used to create a startling effect.
The Hunger Games - Gary Ross - Breaking the 180 Degree Rule
Even famous movies from Hollywood sometimes become care free when it comes to 180 degree rule, in this scene you will be able to see that the bed was moved from left to right, some people usually don't realize it but the ones that do are able to see that this is doesn't because they are trying to show us how she fells, if you watched the entire movie you will know that she just arrived in place that she will have to stay, even if she doesn't feel comfortable, that she doesn't feel like at home, that she feel lost and just not in the right place,and this ids why the 180 rule was broken so you can see how she feels.
