This is the first exercise in the tutorial. Start by looking at a brief episode, which I really like. It is a clip of someone interacting with a 'Big Issue' magazine vendor. The Big Issue is a magazine sold by people who are homeless or vulnerably housed.
Play the clip a few times and try to look closely at the action. The first challenge is simply to say what is happening in detail. This is trickier than it looks. It's like asking someone to really look at a cloud. Don't draw on abstract concepts or ideas. Don't invoke what people might be thinking, because we can't know this. Try to do nothing more than describe the activities themselves in detail. If you do it properly, it should take a bit time.
