The document discusses three important cinematography techniques: the 180 degree rule, which dictates that the camera stay on one side of an imaginary line between subjects to avoid disorienting changes in perspective; match on action, which edits together multiple shots of the same action to create a seamless movement; and shot reverse shot, which alternates over-the-shoulder shots of characters talking to create the illusion of a natural conversation.

- 1. Preliminary Task By William Scholey
- 2. 180 Degree Rule The 180 Degree rule is an important one to follow, the reason for this is because if the rule is broken the actor/actress on the left side would then switch to the right, and vice a versa, to ensure the rule is met the camera has to stay in a 180 Degree radius, as shown below.
- 3. Match On Action Match On Action is when an action is filmed in several clips and then edited together to make one fluent movement, in this case walking and opening doors, it allowed us to take a series of close ups, mid shots and different angles.
- 4. Shot Reverse Shot This shot is often used for conversations between two characters, to achieve this the camera is set up over the shoulder of one of the characters, the character who is facing the camera then says all of their lines. The other character does the same thing. It is then edited together so it’s like flowing conversation.
