More metalanguage

Montage Sequence: a technique of film editing in which a series of short shots are edited into a sequence to condense space, time and information, and is usually used to suggest a passage of time.
An example of this would be at the end of the film, where we see various shots of the characters Nick, Meryl, Andy, Anna and Phil, later on.

Scene: Action in a single location at a continuous time, in a film
Any place in the film where action takes place.

Action: an event or series of events that form part of a dramatic plot.
When Andy is standing in front of the train, and Nick runs beside the train.

Vignette: is known as a small picture or title at the start of the chapter.
At the start of each day, there is a small title, indicating what day it is.
