  1. Economy and Rhythm This is when the camera cuts from scene to scene to juxtapose two related events. The scene changes develop according to a pattern or rhythm.

  2. Economy and Rhythm: Two Things Happening at Once Build tension into a scene by using contrasting situations.  Use two unrelated things happening at once.  The audience should be focused on the momentum of one, and be interrupted by the other.  Usually the second item should be a humorous distraction that means nothing (this can often be dialogue.)  It was put there by you only to get in the way.When unexpected guests arrive at the hotel room in the Man Who Knew Too Much, Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day are in the midst of a tense phone-call.  The arrival of the guests laughing and joking serve a dramatic counterpoint to the real momentum of the scene.  The end result is - the audience pays more attention to what's happening.

  3. Economy and Rhythm “Strangers on a Train” Watch the shoes! Do you recognize a parallelism and rhythm?
