Wikipedia tells me:<\/div>\n

In film making<\/a>, the 180-degree rule<\/b><\/sup> is a basic guideline regarding the on-screen spatial relationship between a character and another character or object within a scene. By keeping the camera on one side of an imaginary axis<\/b> between two characters, the first character is always frame right<\/a> of the second character. Moving the camera over the axis is called jumping the line<\/i> or crossing the line<\/i>; breaking the 180-degree rule by shooting on all sides is known as shooting in the round<\/a>.\u00a0The 180-degree rule enables the audience to visually connect with unseen movement happening around and behind the immediate subject and is important in the narration of battle scenes.<\/p>\n

Ok, I won’t narrate battle scenes (I hope) but I will relate tales between a character and the happenings around that character while on the road, starting next week.<\/p>\n

Here is the character, that younger self of mine, to whose past I’m still tied, on the right side of the imaginary axis.<\/p>\n

In other words, curtains up for Europe next week. I am signing off, and will report, however haphazardly, from my travels for the next month.<\/p>\n

Hope you’ll enjoy the vicarious adventures as well as the perfect symphony for travel – Sibelius himself wrote it while traveling in Italy, and the joy and levity is just the ticket!<\/p>\n
