Shot reverse shot (or shot/countershot) is film technology wherein one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking "back" at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other.
A Shot Reverse Shot starts off with an Establishing shot and then a tight shot is also used help engage the viewers emotion. To shot the shot you need to have a basic two shot and then a medium shot of each character, a medium shot over the shoulder of each character and a close up of eacg character. All shots should be done from the same angle and a lot of lead space to see to make sure they are looking at the other character and also do not go over the 180 degree rule otherwise the audience will be confused in what you are doing.
