The 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other as seen in the figure on the right. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse. This is used in my continuity task as the camera is only placed on one side of the conversation. Match on action is where a charter carries out an action and the shot changes but the action continues in the next shot were the previous shot ended. for example in my continuity task when Darren comes down the stairs to meet me (The Headteacher) and Emily (Darren's Mother). Match on action is used by film makers to give shots a seamless flow. Eye line Match is when a charter looks at something/or someone out of shot, then the shot cuts to what they were looking at.
Master Shot is a film shot of an entire scene, from an angle that keeps all the characters in view. It is often a long shot and can sometimes be used establishing shot.
Shot-Reverse shot is when two or more charters are having a conversation and the camera switches between the charters, to show there reactions to what has been said. for example in my continuity when Darren sits down at the table and we greet each other.
