Continuity editing is a system of cutting between shots to maintain continuous and clear narrative action within the scene. Screen direction, position and temporal relations from shot to shot must match so that the effect is seamless. The 180 degree rule is essential, this is also known as the axis of action. It is how the audience sees the event and anything that moves around them will seem out of place. Below is a video I created in Final Cut Pro which uses a variety of camera shot from different angles, yet it flows continuously and the timing is perfect between the shots.
