    I think it's a good start as you that there are a lot of angles within the scene. Though, you will need to record your actual findings and analyze the piece. That way an argument can actually be formed.

    Some questions I would be asking is stuff like what is the dynamic between the coach and Michael B. Jordan? Is there relationship good up to this point and what does this scene represent in regards to their relationship? Why is Michael B. Jordan fighting? How does this all relate to a bigger picture? Just some questions to think about for your argument.

    I think you should add in which angles helped you have a better experience watching this clip. You want us to feel the intensity the movie gives off by explaining the shot and then also adding how the angles make it better.

    I like this scene that you chose and it does have some great angles, but I think it would help you to identify certain angles in this shot. This is a long continuous shot and you could use that in your argument. I still have a lot of questions with this and how you are looking to take this scene forward and breaking it down, but I am not sure what your argument is with just this clip and the screen shot from the video. I would really love to see your argument on this piece because it can be broken down a whole lot, especially if you are using all 4 and a half minutes of it between shots, angles, meanings, and how they use crossing behind bodies to change the dynamic so that it does not feel like one really long boring take. So far you have a great base to build on top of and I would love to see what comes of this.

    The only movie on the list that I have seen is Black Panther, so I'm not sure how much help I'll be. I love this picture! I thin there is a lot to say just looking at this image. I would look at how the angels add to the intensity of the argument.
