The document discusses several film techniques used in continuity editing: 1) Shot reverse shot shows two characters facing each other and then cuts between their perspectives. 2) Continuity editing aims to smoothly transition between shots in time and space to establish logical coherence. 3) Match on match films the same subject from multiple angles to imply continuity of real time. 4) The 180 degree rule states that two characters should maintain the same left/right relationship between shots to avoid disorienting the viewer.

1. Shot Reverse ShotShot reverse shot is a film technique in which one character is shown looking at another character and then the other character is shown looking "back" at the first character. The characters are shown facing in opposite directions in order to make the viewer assume that they are looking at each other. Shot reverse shot is a classic feature within ‘continuity editing’.

2. Continuity EditingContinuity editing is the predominant style of editing in narrative cinema and television. The purpose of continuity editing is to smooth over the discontinuity of the editing process and to establish a logical coherence between shots. Continuity editing emphasises the smooth transition between time and space however, some films incorporate a more complex technique of continuity one which also tries to show a psychological continuity of shots.

3. Match on MatchMatch on match is when the same subject is shot from multiple angles and shots however it is done so with smooth continuity as if it were real time. This technique is often used within continuity editing.

4. 180° Degree RuleThe 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters (or other elements) in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse angle.This schematic shows the axis between two characters and the 180° arc on which cameras may be positioned (green). When cutting from the green arc to the red arc, the characters switch places on the screen.
