Slow it down: the art of a second watch

What we know

On the first viewing, let the editing do its job. On the second, focus on one thing at a time: environmental sound, visual transitions or how a character is introduced.

Make notes with timestamps and links so you can revisit your observations. Keep observations separate from predictions: seeing a detail in a trailer does not establish how it works in the finished game.
