Select a start time and a stop time for your analysis. It doesn’t hae to be the complete length of the “topic” you have selected. You may want to focus on only a portion of the selected clip, and that’s a great way to delve into the finer details.
Alway count the shots in your selected clip.
Identify any implied temporal ellipses, and observe which techniques of narrative film have contributed to conveying the passage of a period of time, from one shot to the next.
Begin your initial post with a header identifying the start and stop times you have selected (e.g. 0:00 to 1:11) and the nuber of shots contained in yor selected clip ( eg. 17 shots). Also, identify temporal ellipses, if any (eg. no temporal ellipses). Such an example would look like this:

Selected clip: 0:00 to 1:11; 17 shots; no discernible temporal ellipses.”
Also, identify any music present in the selected clip as either diegetic or nondiegetic.
Diegetic music: Identify the imlied source of themusic within the world of the film (either on-screen or off-screen); identify start and top times (eg. diegetic music starts at 1:13 with the cut to the beah scene, stops at 2:42 when it can no longer be heard”).
