The 30 degree rule is rule used in filmmaking with the purpose of creating continuity between different shots within a larger sequence of shots.
when moving your camera between shots the camera should be moved a minimum of 25 to 30 degrees (with a maximum limit of 180 degrees) to avoid jarring transitions also known as jump cuts. This helps you seamlessly piece together a larger sequence of shots in a harmonious manner.
