- Shot / Reverse Shot - Where one character is shown looking at another character, who is often off-screen, and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character. (Normally used during a conversation)
- 180 degree rule - two characters in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other otherwise the audience would get confused.
- Match on action - the idea that the filming must be continuous and connects two shots cut together by having a character finish an action in the second shot begun in the first shot.
Reflective comments:
After experimenting with creating these shots, I now feeling comfortable with being able to include these shots within my final OTS.
