    My Favorite Mistake It was my seventh grade year and basketball tryouts were crawling nearer and nearer. Everyday that went by I pushed basketball off to the side to hang out with friends, go to sporting events, etc. I thought I had this in the bag and I would for sure make the “A” team.

    audience. This tension is created by jumping between long shots of Lisa in the apartment of a murderer and Jeff’s reactions to what’s happening to her. It is important to note that when we see Lisa in the apartment it is much farther away than the usual longshot, however, because in an extreme long shot the environment dominates, the long shot is the more appropriate description for these shots because the focus is on Lisa.
