Shot Reverse Shot

Shot Reverse Shot

Shot-Reverse-Shot is when a point of view shot or over the shoulder shot of character is shown mainly used in conversations and then a reversal of the same shot is done but from the view of the other character. 
Following the example below;

Image from Google of a Shot Reverse Shot 
The first shot follows a two shot of two female characters (A and B) sitting side by side. Then the next shot cuts to an over the shoulder mid shot of character A whilst she talks to the character B. After this the shot reverses to the opposite side similar to a conversation to show an over the shoulder shot of character B who is staring at character A.

  1. A clear explanation. Did you create the video yourself? If so, well done. If not, it's fine but always remember to name your source for copyright reasons.
