Chapter 8 Response

I realize the importance of storytelling and how pacing is essentially everything when it comes to translating it. I you tell a lateral storyline it is very straightforward but it must also be kept in mind that only so much can be shown to the audience otherwise it will confuse them so parts will have to be removed for clarity. Lingering on a scene, object or action it is suddenly given importance, the less time one has with a visual the less important it is to the audience because they aren't given the time to acknowledge it.
One can benefit from a montage as a means of hinting at what is going on over a span of time without having to go into great detail.
