Story boards are rough illustrations that are used in order to help you as the creator to order you thoughts. They may also help the people you are working with understand your vision. You can make this through drawing or still shots.
The rule of thirds is where you use lines to divide the shot and it makes it easier to position your subject
High angle shots make the subject seem weak whereas low angle shots make the subject look dominant.
Continuity is making sure the shots make sense when put together eg costume.
180 degree rule is used to make sure that it looks like two subjects are looking at eachother in two different shots
Shot reverse shot is going back and forth between two over the shoulder shots to make it look as though a conversation is flowing
Stedicam is keeping the camera steady with a dolly or tripod
Focusing on a subject by zooming in in their face for example and focusing then going back to original shot.
Pulling focus is changing focus mid shot
