180 rule and semiotics

red rose: love and beauty
white rose: purity
blue colour: youth, spirituality, truth
green: life, nature
black: death
red: danger

180 degrees rule is used to show the talking of the two character or opposite within a scene. An imaginary line is used to connect the characters and by keeping the camera on one side of this line for every shot in the scene. If the camera passes over the axis, it is called crossing the line or jumping the line.

  1. This shows sound understanding of the basics of the rule.

    However, I do not see much evidence of work completed since then. This need to change and I must see more complete work from you or I shall be forced to add you to the prep list.

    You must have:

    The essay on City of God completed by Sun eve (already overdue by two days)
    The script for a continuous master shot.
