The 180-degree rule is the simple concept that a
scene should be shot from only one side. This creates a spatial awareness for
the viewer, preventing confusion in more complicated rules. If, for example, a
side shot shows a character looking to the left side of the frame, a shot
showing them looking to the right side should not be used.
There are times this rule can be broken, such as in a one shot or if the
camera movement itself shows the change in angle. In these however the camera
movement provides the audience with spatial awareness.
