- What is "continuity editing"? In what sense is it "continuous"?
- Where does the 180-degree rule get its name? ([tvcrit.com/find/180degreerule Peter John Ross's example]
- What is its purpose?
- What are each of the following editing conventions?

- Match cuts:
- Eyeline match
- Match on action

Scene découpage
- Television discusses the editing of this scene from Grey's Anatomy, breaking it down in what the book calls a découpage.
- We can create a similar découpage of a scene from Steven Soderbergh's Out of Sight, featuring Jack Foley (George Clooney) and Karen Sisco (Jennifer Lopez). Using this découpage, draw an overhead diagram of the camera positions of all eight shots--similar to the 180-degree diagram above. (Draw just one diagram that shows all the camera and actor positions.)
- Does this scene use the editing conventions listed above? Be specific. Hint: be sure to look closely at the first shot. It's a reflection in the window!
