🧠 Audience Experience Breakdown

Using screened clips from Day 1 and two mentor short films, students build shared vocabulary for story beats, shot sequencing, scene transitions, and audience impact. They annotate a viewing guide, discuss how multimodal choices create intention and persuasion, and map what keeps viewers engaged, confused, or emotionally invested. Students then draft an individual audience experience brief that names likely festival viewers, possible needs, and initial assumptions to test in the next phase.
