There are certain rules we must follow when filming. One is the 180 degree rule.
This rule means you can only film on a semi-circle basis, otherwise, the camera work will be incredibly confusing for the viewer. Take a game of football for example.
Football is always filmed on one side of the pitch- the side that's nearer to us. If we suddenly switched sides on the camera, it would look as though the teams suddenly switched side sides and a new game was being played.
We need to stick to this rule as we dont want our thriller to look as though two totally different things are happening at the same time.
This is an example of the 180 degree rule.
