Continuity Editing in V for Vendetta

 

 .

 

 In this particular scene for V for Vendetta continuity editing is shown. In these three shots, the 180° rule is shown. It shows her walking over to the object. The shots fit together and so it looks continuous when she walks from the doorway to the object. The 180° rule basically means that if the woman walks in on the right side of the object, she must stay on the right side the whole time she interacts with the object. If she is to change sides, the whole thing should be shown otherwise it would look incorrect and there would be no continuation. So, in these shots she stays on the right side as she walks to the object.

It is shown again here when the woman is on the left side, she stays on the left side and the man stands on the right. It makes the shots continue and does not confuse the audience.
