180 degree rule

The 180 degree rule is very important in video editing because it shows all characters should have the same "left-right relationship" or the final outcome of a film could be affected. Basically if a conversation occurs between two characters, the camera will cut one from one side of the characters to the other and the characters will appear to swap positions but it helps keep the realism because from another angle it would appear differently.



This is an example of the 180 degree rule.
