What Is Continuity Editing?, 180 degree rule?, Match on action?, and Shot/Reverse shot?

Continuity editing: Continuity editing is when you are filming something, for example someone going through a door from a long shot, and as they are about to open the door, from another shot say a close up it shows the person opening the door. So it is like doing the same thing in different shots, so continuing the same action, from different camera shots.

180 degree rule: The 180 degree rule is a very simple rule in filming, and it is when you are fiming, for example two people, and you are not aloud to go more than 180 degrees round them with the camera otherwise it will confuse the audience by thinking that the actor has turned around or something like that, which would probably confuse them.

Match on action: This is when a continuity cut which unites two different views of the same action together at the same moment in the movement, making the shot seem to continue.

Shot/Reverse shot: This is a very hard and interesting shot, because you have to get the timing and voice tone right. This is when you have, for example an over shoulder veiw of a person who is speaking, and then switching the shot to the other persons shoulder so that you see the other person speaking, but it is all in the same conversation, which makes it hard and you have to use editing to the best of your ability.
