For you budding filmmakers, a helpful quick filmmaking 180 degree rule summary (not to be confused with the 180 shutter rule).

Applied to aerials, replace the example of two people with whatever the subject matter is, a beach, coastline, a real estate listing, etc. Adding neutral transition shots when switching "180 sides" can help the viewer stay oriented if it's necessary.
