Continuity editing is the main style of editing in narrative cinema and television. The objective of continuity editing is to correct the break continuity of the editing process and to establish a logical understanding between shots.
180 degree rule:
The 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters in the same scene should always have the same angular relationship between each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary line connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse angle.
Match on action:
A match cut is a cut in film editing between either two different objects, two different spaces, or two different compositions in which an subject in the two shots graphically match, often helping to establish a strong continuity of action and linking the two shots metaphorically.
shot reverse shot:
Shot reverse shot (or shot/countershot) is a film technique where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other.
