cut away
Trim excess off
Cut away means to remove something by cutting, often to reveal what's underneath or to separate a section: The surgeon cut away the dead tissue.
In film and television, to cut away is to shift suddenly from one scene to another, especially to show something happening elsewhere: The director cut away to the crowd's reaction.
A cutaway is a shot that interrupts the main action.
