A conversation that cuts between cameras makes the speakers swap sides

When two characters talk and the game cuts between cameras, the audience can suddenly feel that they changed places, and the scene reads wrong. There is a simple line to respect. Here is how to pick the next camera automatically so cuts stay clear.

Why this works

The audience builds a map of the scene in their head: one person is left, the other right. Every shot must keep to the same side of the line between them, or the map breaks and the scene reads wrong.

When not to use it

Break the rule on purpose when you want confusion or a loss of footing, such as a fight scene gone wrong or a dream. It also does not apply to a free, player-controlled camera, or to scenes with a single speaker and no partner.
