Definición y Significado de "reverse shot"

What is a "reverse shot"?

A reverse shot is a camera angle that shows the opposite perspective of a previous shot. This technique is often used in conversations or interactions to provide a view of what a character is looking at or responding to. For example, if the first shot shows a character speaking, the reverse shot would show the character they are addressing. This helps establish spatial relationships and maintains continuity in the scene by allowing viewers to see both sides of the interaction.
