“Diagram of Cameras”
During a fast-action chase or other action scenes, the issue of screen direction may seem
inconsequential but it probably is not. One could have an overhead shot of a horseman
running over a drawbridge and into a fortress, disappearing under the ramparts moving
from left to right. The next shot could have the camera inside the walls and at a lower angle
as he passes through the gate and across the screen. It is important to realize that this second
shot should also have the character moving from the left side of the screen to the right.
