SESSION 12: FILMING DIALOGUE & THE 180 DEGREE RULE

- One of the basic rules of filmmaking.




- 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 left/right relationship to each other.

- If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called ‘crossing the line’. 

- When cutting across the 180 degree line, the characters SWITCH PLACES on the screen.

Breaking The Rule

Why do you think Stanley Kubrick chose to break the 180 degree rule for the Bathroom scene in The Shining?

Maybe to create disorientation for the viewer / audience?
