analytical editing: analysing a scene into a series of shots and applying rules to ensure that the audience understands the connections between them.
It makes sure that the scene makes sense and flows when it is watched back.
What is the 180 degree rule/Crossing the line?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/180_degree_rule
It is a basic rule when filming, it makes sure that the two, or however many characters, have the same position in the scene. For example if a man and a woman are arguing, during a shot reverse shot, the lady should always be on the same side, as should the man. If the camera goes past the 180 degree rule, it is called crossing the line.
What is Shot Reverse Shot?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_reverse_shot
It is where the camera goes from looking at one person from the other person perspective, to going to the other and then back. For example if A and B are having a conversation, the camera will shot A from over B's shoulder and then using the 180 degree rule, go to looking at B from over A's shoulder.
What is Match on Action?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_on_action
Match on action is where the production is cut from one shot to a different view which matches the action from the first shot. Match on action gives an impression of continous time between the shots even if they were shot hours apart.
