The 180° rule is a rule that demonstrates the effective technique on moving the camera in only a 180 degree area. This is often used to focus on one individuals face then move around 90 degrees with this semi-circle to focus on the other individuals reaction. It is often used in a dialogue scene between two characters, it is a sufficient way to view the characters reactions and facial expressions with quick cuts that aren't to jumpy or sharp that just quick and smooth and an effective way to switch between characters. The image below shows the camera that can move between the 180 degrees, focusing on the two different characters. The 180 degree rule in motion.
