I...am jealous. I think I'd have to see a visual example to get the 180 degree rule.
Hopefully I'll be able to take some film classes next semester. The closest was a course on Film Noir and Women's Film, both of which concentrated on the '40s. Both were technically English courses though. I never really concentrated on cinematic techniques/camera angles and what not since I couldn't figure out how to incorporate them in a paper outside of "Hey, the line of sight from the bedpost to his arm make him appear imposing!" Maybe I should read more articles...
I look forward to reading more entries, should they come to be. I hear animating is pretty exhaustive work, so I wouldn't be surprised if you're too busy or tired to write more on it.
