In 1896 Melies used jump cuts along with other transitions in a trip to the moon. Jump cut deliberately breaks continuity to make the people think and to create something supernatural and his a a modern way of showing it. In this short film it shows the jump cuts when the dad is in he kitchen on the phone. The jump cuts show that he is unsteady and also to show that the supernatural doll in his daughters room upstairs is about attack. an older version of an example of his is a trip to he moon.
180 degree rule was discovered by Griffith by a trail and error and 180 degree rule is part of continuity, 180 degree rule is is only used by single cameras because if it was used by a multi camera the other cameras will get into the shot. There is a line of action you can't cross otherwise it would be a completely different shot by he characters looking at something else. An example of this is from doctor who and that would be a modem version of it. An older version of this would be 'The lonely villa' in 1909.
