180 Degree Rule Evaluation...


The 180 degree rule means that you can only shoot from the same side, for example if two characters are sharing a few lines of dialogue and the camera is on the right, then you cant just move the camera to the opposite side of the conversation because then it will look like the two characters have changed position, it is important that we nail the 180 degree rule because we need every aspect of our film to look realistic, but above all it needs to look like professional film production.

In the clip that we produced today we found the 180 degree rule quite confusing at times, and because of this we were unsure where the camera was meant to be placed to get the best shots as possible. Unfortunately we did not do the 180 degree rule right which meant that a small part of our clip towards the end looked a little bit unprofessional, but I feel that now I have researched into the 180 degree rule i will be able to put it to the test in the thriller film that we create in a few short weeks.
