Excellent Decision!

Now the first three frames are:

$\Rightarrow$ Fade In $\Rightarrow$ $\Rightarrow$ Cut To $\Rightarrow$ $\Rightarrow$ Cut To $\Rightarrow$ $\Rightarrow$ Dolly To $\Rightarrow$ $\Rightarrow$ $\Rightarrow$

Special Note:

You did NOT cross the line!!! You did not dolly out and so you did NOT cross the imaginary line between the Young Person and the Old Person. That means you must stay on this side of the line (between the actors and the poster) for the rest of the movie unless you move the camera during a shot to the other side of this imaginary line. You have made a major decision… probably without even knowing it. This will effect the entire rest of the movie.
