05 · Anatomy of an Event

An event is not only who and what.
It is also how.

The core idea

Searching images finds things.
Searching video finds behavior.

Every word adds color to the search

What are you looking for?

One frame

Running from something, or running for something?

The frame shows who and what: a man running. Only continuity shows how: he waves at the bus, the doors stay open, he catches it. Same frame, opposite meaning. The “how” is what turns a picture into an event.
