The clips below from The Professional, The Babadook and Sunrise were referenced and linked in the book. Ask students to explain what they intended to demonstrate.

Analyze these clips from Cast Away with the class. Point out motivated camera movement and the decisions to keep the camera still, and how these decisions contributed to telling the story visually.
