180 degree rule

180 Degree Rule

The 180 degree rule is a filming technique, it's when a line is imagined between the two characters this line is referred to as the axis of action. The cameras can be used from any angle on one side of the the characters. However, it should not alternate to the other side of the characters because this can leave the viewers to feel disorientated and it doesn't make the dialog between the two characters clear. 

My 180 Degree Rule Video

This is my short video that portrays the 180 degree rule. I chose to have no sound with this video because then the video is more focused on the facial expressions and the camera angles that was used with the 180 degree rule technique.
