Sequence: Define


In animated visual texts—movies, commercials, or music videos, for example—the juxtaposition of images or scenes conveys shifts in time, place, or point of view.

People who compose such texts often use storyboards to sketch out the sequence of scenes before they ever shoot a minute of film. These stills exist as sketches before the author creates the finished film.
