How to Find a Scene in a Movie

If you have a movie in DVD format, you can find a favorite scene quickly by using your remote control. This is especially helpful for teachers who want to use a portion of a film to make a point or give their students a visual connection for studying a period in history. It is not necessary to show an entire video when a snip is sufficient. In fact, many schools frown on showing videos at all.

Things You'll Need

• DVD player
• DVD remote
• DVD movie

Instructions

1. Go to the main menu screen. Choose the area that says "scenes." Scroll through the scene numbers by using the "Advance" and "Reverse" buttons.

2. When you pick a number, look at the still picture that shows on the screen. Recognizing the activity in a scene will help you identify the spot you are seeking.

3. Press the "Advance" button after finding your scene. Replay the scene immediately by pressing the "Back" button.
