Explanation:
The problem you have here is the use of two words, Luana.

"Montagem" is essentially another word for editing, but you've already got that, so I would suggest:

'editing and cutting'

This is quite an interesting article:

(film) editing


Explanation:
Film editing is part of the creative post-production process of filmmaking. The term film editing is derived from the traditional process of working with film, but now it increasingly involves the use of digital technology



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_editing

Montagem ou edição é um processo que consiste em selecionar, ordenar e ajustar os planos de um filme ou outro produto audiovisual a fim de alcançar o resultado desejado - seja em termos narrativos, informativos, dramáticos, visuais, experimentais

agree  Catarina Aleixo: Yep, as both edição and montagem are there, cutting makes the most sense in context

  -> Appreciate that. "Cutting" refers to more than just cutting out unwanted parts of a film, but also the process of emending/splicing, that sort of thing... that's why I suggested the article to read in PT.
agree  Dr Lofthouse

  • Rough cut - first assembly of a film which the editor prepares from selected takes, in script order, leaving the finer points of timing and editing to a later stage.
