  2. 180-degree rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/180-degree_rule

    The rule states that the camera should be kept on one side of an imaginary axis between two characters, so that the first character is always frame right of the second character. Moving the camera over the axis is called jumping the line or crossing the line; breaking the 180-degree rule by shooting on all sides is known as shooting in the round.

  3. Over-the-shoulder shot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-the-shoulder_shot

    This occurs because the filmmaker has placed the subject as an overlapping object along the Z-axis of the frame, the Z-axis meaning the imaginary line that runs from the foreground to the background of a shot. [15] This schematic shows the axis between two characters and the 180° arc on which cameras may be positioned (green).

    Another example would be if two characters are shown in a medium shot, say from the waist up, looking at each other, it is generally established that one is on the left of screen and the other on the right. The one on the left looks right to the other character and vice versa.

    By keeping the camera on one side of an imaginary axis between two characters, the first character is always frame right of the second character. Moving the camera over the axis is called jumping the line or crossing the line; breaking the 180-degree rule by shooting on all sides is known as shooting in the round. [1] 30-degree rule

  6. Alignment (Dungeons & Dragons) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_(Dungeons_&_Dragons)

    Characters and creatures could be lawful and evil at the same time (such as a tyrant), or chaotic but good (such as Robin Hood). [8] Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (AD&D), released between 1977 and 1979, continued the two-axis system. [9] The 1981 version of the Basic Set went back to the earlier one-axis alignment system. [10]

  7. Shot/reverse shot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot/reverse_shot

    Shot/reverse shot (or shot/countershot) is a film technique where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character (a reverse shot or countershot). Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are ...

  8. Isometric video game graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_video_game_graphics

    Clicking any tile on the central axis of the board where (x, y) = (tileMapWidth / 2, y), will produce the same tile value for both world-x and world-y which in this example is 3 (0 indexed). Selecting the tile that lies one position on the right on the virtual grid, actually moves one tile less on the world-y and one tile more on the world-x.

  9. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    [2] [3] Typically in axonometric drawing, as in other types of pictorials, one axis of space is shown to be vertical. In isometric projection , the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [ 4 ] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened , and there is a common ...
