| Frontality | The placing of the camera at a 90 angle to the action. |

| Match on Action | A cut between 2 shots of the same action from different positions, giving an impression of seamless simultaneity. |
| Parallel Action | Aspects of a story happening simultaneously with the primary performer's situation, edited so that the projected images goes back and forth between the primary and secondary scenes (often leading up to a convergence of the two actions) |
