Jumpcut example

Trainspotting:

In the scene in which renton the main character of trainspotting is ‘tripping’ on drugs there are various jumpcuts . This makes the film feel unreal and dreamlike .

A jump cut is a cut in film editing in which two sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions that vary only slightly. This type of edit causes the subject of the shots to appear to "jump" position in a discontinuous way. For this reason, jump cuts are considered a violation of classical continuity editing, which aims to give the appearance of continuous time and space in the story-world by de-emphasizing editing. Jump cuts, in contrast, draw attention to the constructed nature of the film.

I honestly had trouble finding an exact program which broke the 5 minute rule mainly because I don’t watch much tv .

30 degree shot

The 30 degree rule is rule used in filmmaking with the purpose of creating continuity between different shots within a larger sequence of shots.

180 degree rule and examples of it broken

Never cross the 180 degree line In filmmaking, the 180° rule is a basic guideline that states that two characters (or other elements) in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse angle.

Look at this scene in "The Shining" -- Kubrick shoots wide shots from both directions, a 180 degree flip, crossing the line -- but he picks  a screen direction to match close-ups on:
