Warm-Up (15 min)
POTD

Write an example sentence using the following vocabulary words.
VOTD:
Montage: is a technique in film editing in which a series of short shots are edited into a sequence to condense space, time, and information. It is usually used to suggest the passage of time, rather than to create symbolic meaning as it does in Soviet montage theory.

Juxtaposition: Placing of two things side by side to compare or contrast. In film, this is done by editing two different clips; these clips, when juxtaposed, then make a third meaning.
