Match on action:
- Is a continuity editing in which one shot cuts to another shot portraying the action of the subject in the first shot.
- It creates the impression if continuity.
- The action carrying through creates a "visual bridge" which draws the audience's attention away from slight cutting.
- It portrays a continuous sense of the same action rather than matching two separate things.
Shot reverse shot:
- Is a continuity editing technique used in conversations of characters looking at each other or objects.
- A shot showing what the character is supposedly looking at (either a POV or over the shoulder shot) is followed by a reverse angle shot of the character themselves looking at it, or of the other character looking back at them.
- Shot reverse shot often ties in with the 180º rule to retain continuity.
The 180º rule
- It is a guildline that participants in a scene should have the same left-right relationship to each other, with filming only taking place within the 180º angle.
- This allows the audience to have a greater sense of the location in the scene in terms of what may be off-screen in some shots.
