Research- Editing Techniques
In our preliminary film, we are required to use three particular editing techniques; The 180 degree rule, Match on Action and Shot/Reverse shot. I gathered the information from this following link; http://www.slideshare.net/joe940/match-on-action-180-rule-shot-reverse-shot
Match on Action: A technique in which the camera cuts from one shot to another that matches the action of the first shot. This creates an impression of continuity- the action carrying through creates a visual bridge.
Shot/Reverse Shot- A technique that shows a character looking at either an object or a person, which is then followed by a shot of either the object that the character was previously looking at or another character looking back at them.
180 Degree Rule: A shot that is only filmed within a 180 degree radius, usually to show and establish a relationship between two characters. Both characters in the shot must be standing within a 'line of action'.
