Respect + Montage

Well after a few weeks of VPA110 i have a new respect for people who make tv shows and movies. The amount of thought and planning that goes into a single production is staggering.

I was watching One Tree Hill ( i feel a little shame) and noticed that there were about 4 or 5 small montages in the 45 minute program. Then i watched some movies. They all had several montages. Montage is a great way of visually telling a story but it never seems to be over used. it seems to me monage may the the Holy Grail of visual story telling. It would take a real big dope o made a bad montage.
