Rule of

Thirds

Rule of thirds is where the shot of the camera is divided into nine
split sections, with four key intersecting points within the central
shot, to highlight where the key areas where the audiences eyes
are most likely to focus. The Rule of thirds can also be described
as the camera mans guideline.

Shot Reverse
Shot

Shot reverse shot is when the shot focuses on one character,

with usually the back of another characters head in the shot,
used to imply that a conversation/dialogue between two
characters is taking place to the audience, which seems natural
and that no editing has taken place.

Match on
Action

This type of shot is to demonstrate a clear flow of a characters

actions, within a recording. Various shots are used from different
angles to make this flow seem more interesting and realistic,
however if the shots dont match correctly, then it becomes poor
and doesnt work.

180 degree
rule

The 180 degree rule shot is when two characters are positioned
within a shot and the camera moves from various positions, but
whats going on in the scene must be kept the same at all times,
and only the camera must move.
