Nicely summated 180 degree rule, especially so when showing how to reframe scene when characters are moving within an area. Fair play lads! Great to see no haters around also. Have never seen a video with more than 100 likes and no dislikes!
I get so much out of your videos, thank you. You guys do a great job. I am a beginner filmmaker, and have started my own channel. I am going to use it to practice the stuff you guys teach along with the teachings of others. Thank you again, and keep going. I will keep watching. #OneBlindMiceDIY
What a great video guys great job! You should make a video about the use of soft and harsh light on a subject, because sometimes the soft look isnt always the one that you need Cumps from Portugal 💪👌
A suggestion for a future video is the 180 degree rule with 4 people in a scene. I just shot a short film and we got it right, but it’s definitely difficult when having multiple moving parts.
I am intrigued by that last sentence, if you want to confuse your audience on purpose, like in a fighting scene or whatever, and break the line without it being visible, i dont think the line changes then, and you broke the rule. The rule was broken and since it will make the audience lose their sense of spatial awareness does that not make breaking a rule work?
It's all subjective at the end of the day. I think, for beginners, it's safe to ensure you never break it and stick to the rules like concrete. If you look at films like Rocky or James Bond, there is always a sense of spatial awareness, cutting back to wide shots, or retaining screen direction, even during action. I don't know why I would want to frustrate the audience on purpose, it usually ends up feeling poor rather than artistic. But, like I say, that part is subjective.
Gonna be honest if you need actors to hold a physical tape or wire for you to understand the 180 degree rule in your shoots, stop shooting, like right now, stop it.
The tape method is there to give beginners an easy understanding of the 180 degree rule. You can simply visualise the tape when you shoot. Nobody is saying you should bring tape on location, but it helps for those who are new to grasping the method. We all started at the beginning.
It's crazy how many times it is broken in films and TV shows. Sometimes I think they know they have broken it, and have to break it because of the production schedule or something.
“The straight line between the characters is known as the line”
Creativity 10/10
Diagram drawings help explain the rule so clearly. Great tips.
No problem :)
I learned this for many years ago, but it's always good to look at a reminder! Thank you Guys! :-)
No problem VP!

Cheers Epoche films! Great to see we have a positive community :D
The 180 is essential! Great breakdown, made it simple for people.
Cinematic sorcery. Good stuff
Very basic tip, but a super important one! Great job guys! Really liked this a video a lot.
Excellent! Im beginning in Video and this material is what I been waitting for! Thanks from Latin America!
No problem Jonas! Welcome to the channel!
Good one guys, by far the best explanation of this concept I’ve seen. Your use of visual aids and real-world examples are sets it apart 😀
That's great to hear. We weren't sure whether the string method etc. would easily translate on screen. Cheers!

Great suggestion! We have something planned in that realm, so we will get to work on it very soon. Cheers!
Another great video!
Cheers GM!
Great video
Cheers Darren!
dope video
What about when shooting more than two individuals?
It's a little more complex but we ARE working on an episode about this topic as we speak! Stay tuned :)

Hey, it's young Elon Musk!
"Parasite" broke the rule.
Great video by the way!
Weird that in filmmaking there is TWO 180 degree rules. And they mean different things.
Oh yeah! The other being the 180 degree shutter angle?
@@TheFilmLook yes.

it all becomes more apparent when subjects are moving more so then when they are static
U look beautiful 🥰🔥
Elon?
Yes.
you can always break a rule when u know why you do it
I brake the 180 rule fairly often. I also see it broken in good films all the time. You just need to understand what you are doing.
