RESEARCH: The 180° Rule

The 180° rule is a basic rule in film making which means that two people or objects in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera moves over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. If a new shot was to be made from the opposite side which would then flip the people or objects around, this would confuse the audience and they would notice straight away.






here is an example of The 180° rule..
