A film technique wherein one character is shown looking (o6en off-‐screen) at another character, and then the other character
is shown looking "back" at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite direcBons, the viewer unconsciously assumes that they are looking at each other.

Matching On AcBon A cut made on acBon or movement between two shots in
which the acBon has been overlapped either by repeBBon of the acBon or by the use of more than one camera.
The 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 le6/right relaBonship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecBng the two subjects, it is called crossing the line.

ConBnuity edit
ConBnuity ediBng refers to arranging the sequence of shots to suggest a progression of events in a logical way. So everything has to flow, eg. if someone has blonde hair they can't dye it to brown as it won't flow.
Eyeline matching
An eyeline match is a film ediBng technique associated with the conBnuity ediBng system. It is based on the premise that the audience will want to see what the character on-‐screen is seeing. The eyeline match begins with a character looking at something off-‐screen, there will then be a cut to the object or person at which he is looking. For example, a man is looking off-‐screen to his le6, and then the film cuts to a television that he is watching.
