Sequence (filmmaking)

When making a movie, it's like telling a long story that has different parts. The sequence is one of those parts. It's like a mini-story that happens within the larger story of the movie.

For example, imagine you're watching a movie about a superhero. In one sequence, the superhero is fighting a bad guy. That sequence is like a mini-story within the larger story of the superhero saving the day.

Sequences can have different moods, like sad, happy, or scary. They can also have different styles of editing, like fast-paced action or slow, emotional scenes.

Overall, sequences help to break up a long story into smaller, more manageable parts.
