Shot rules

The 180 degree rule is used to make sure the viewer does not get confused and disorientated. It is an imaginary line which connects characters and the camera should not go over it.

Match an action: an editing technique which cuts from one shot to another quickly portraying the subject of action in the first. It creates tension and draws the viewer away from slight cutting.


Reverse shot: used in conversations or simply characters looking at each other or something else. It ties in with 180 degree rule as its used to not disorientate the viewer as well. The shot is  when it shows what the character is meant to be looking at then a re=verse angle to them actually looking at it.
