Video Prelim

Shot reverse Shot, this is a film technique where a character is shown looking at another but the other character is usually off-screen, then this character is shown looking back at the first character they were talking to.

Match on Action, this refers to film editing, this is where the editor cuts from one shot to another view which matches the original shots action. One example can be a person walking up to a door and reaching for the door knob.

The 180 degree rule, this is a guideline which states that two characters in a scene should maintain a left or right relationship to each other. An imaginary line called the axis connects the characters, by keeping the camera on one side of this axis. By keeping the camera on one side, every shot in the scene the first person is always on the right of the second person.

Continuity editing, this is the style of film editing and video editing in the post production process of making a film, the purpose of this is to smooth over the inherent discontinuity of the editing stage and to establish a logical coherence between each shots.
