Cherry-picking footage choices
Selective editing is the practice of choosing which portions of recorded material to include or exclude in order to create a particular impression.
The term usually carries negative connotations, implying manipulation: The interview was taken out of context through selective editing.
News organizations and documentary filmmakers face accusations of selective editing when critics believe omitted material would change the story's meaning.
