In the assigned scene, we watch the Gallagher family discuss plans around the breakfast table, while learning about their socioeconomic standing and unique family dynamics.
Mylod, the director for this sequence, shifts between tracking his subjects with pans and cutting between them. Throughout, we maintain a clear sense of space. For example, at the start of the scene, we track motion from the bedrooms to the kitchen in a single cut; however, we maintain focus on the same character.
Following that, we track the gallon of milk, which moves from the refrigerator to the table, to connect the two locations. Given the chaotic nature of the scene, it’s important that Mylod gives us a clear sense of space that allows us to focus on the dynamics of the family (arguably the most important part of the scene).
