180 Degree Rule:
The 180 Degree rule means that any two or more characters/objects in the same scene need to continue the same left/right relationship to each other. To cross the 180 degree line, the camera must physically move to keep the audience orientated whilst viewing.
Match on Action:
Match on action is a term in film editing when the editor cuts from one shot to another and continues the flow of the first shot from a different perspective. Although the camera moves position the action is fluid.
Continuity Editing:
This is a style of film editing where the editor has to ensure the clips flow smoothly without any form of breaking in the clips. For example, if in one shot a person is holding a glass in their left hand, they need to be holding it in the same hand in the next shot even if the filming is on a different day.
Shot Reverse Shot:
When the camera switches from person to person in a conversation.
Eyeline Match:
Seeing what the characters see on screen. So if the characters in a scene look at something first, then the camera cuts to a shot of what they are looking at from their perspective.
