Look room is the space that you leave in front of someones face on the screen. This space gives the person room to breathe, as well as gives the impression that the person is looking at or talking to someone just off screen. If you don't leave enough look room, your subject will appear to be boxed-in and confined.
It is a basic technique in the world of filming where by which you film a person and most of the screen, if not taken up by a character is taken up by where they are looking, unless something is going to happen behind them, much like in a thriller movie, below is a very good example of using the Look room/head room rule.
