What is a Scene?

A scene is a bucket that contains drama. It occupies its own space for a finite amount of time. When time is up, the setup stays while we cut to a new scene. Scenes are great because they talk to you. They’ll tell you the highway scene is finished. They’ll tell it’s time to cut to the empty house.
