Montage theory

The montage theory is mainly used when something is needed to be built up to. For example in the rocky movie he would always have a training montage before each fight. This would usually be because he knew his opponent is going to be stronger than him. So he goes through an intense workout montage this is to show his progress and strength.

In film making this is when many different shots are linked together in a short period of time. This is to take a lot of information and condense it into a small context/moment of the film. This is mainly to save time and save their budget.

This can also be used so that the story is made more intresting and the whole sequence is sped up and made much for fast paced. It can also be used to make you excited to see what happens after this montage of the person training or whatever they are doing in the montage. To see if they win some kind of competition for example.
