I feel like the scene is showing something along the lines of organized chaos since there is so much going on at once after the shot of the note on the fridge. It has a sort of feeling that despite everything going on at the same time there is a form of synchronization between all the family members who manage to fluidly follow the previous person that was being interacted with. Visually, it looks like another day of breakfast with a seemingly too large amount of people. There’s also the details like the washer shot and the filling the milk jug so everyone has enough for their cereal.
The continuity is set up to be at the kitchen table and the areas around it which include the kitchen itself and the washing machine. It sets up how the room is laid out and helps the audience get a view of how the family lives. As said before, there is a certain amount of synchronization between everyone as they go about separate things at the table while also paying attention to each other at the same time. It’s something that likely takes practice and time to get used to. Some anchors of attention are the milk jug and the box for the electric bill payment. The milk starts out the sequence and is then followed by the box for the payment, it guides the scene along and gives something to focus on with all the chaos happening in the ‘background’.
The scene demonstrates what I feel is the peak form of multitasking, something which is fairly hard for some people to do and easier for others. I find that for myself I’m better at multitasking with certain things and not other things which has helped me figure out what works and what doesn’t. Having music in the background while doing almost anything helps me focus more on what I’m doing rather than getting distracted by other things while cleaning or working on homework. Even when I read books I’ll sometimes have music going just to block out other noise, when on long car rides or road trips and sometimes at home but more rarely.
