How did you make sure that you didn’t break the 180 degree rule? Or if you broke it, what have you learnt from this?

We made sure that we didn’t break this rule by keeping the camera on one side of the action at all times, this can be seen throughout the conversation between the two characters in the video, because we filmed it from just one side. Furthermore there was a long table on the other side of the characters so we couldn’t film from that side therefore we did not break the 180 degree rule. When watching this scene over again, it clearly portrays the conversation in a smooth way from over the shoulder of both characters but not breaking the 180 degree rule. We learnt that if we broke this and filmed from both sides of each character, then it would look weird and as if the characters had swapped positions. This wouldn’t make the video as smooth as it could be. This is why we filmed from over the right shoulder of Edwin, and over the left shoulder of Kailin This ensured we didn’t break the 180 degree ruled.
