1. Continuity.
• The maintenance of continuous
action and self-consistent detail in
the various scenes of a film or
broadcast.

2. Match on action.
• Cutting on action or matching on action refers
to film editing and video editing techniques
where the editor cuts from one shot to
another view that matches the first shot's
action

3. 180-degre rule.
• Rule stating that a camera should be placed somewhere
inside 180 degrees on a particular side of the invisible line of
a shot containing two people filmed in sequence. If the
camera crosses the line, confusion results for the film
viewers, because it makes it look like the people are
switching places as one watches the film.

4. Shot and reverse shot.
• Shot reverse shot is a film technique where
one character is shown looking at another
character 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.
