Imagine an accident. It might be minor--a finger cut while slicing vegetables, a knocked-over vase--or it might be major--a car wreck, a gallery of paintings destroyed by a fire sprinkler.
Now, write several versions of the accident: a one-sentence summary, a one-paragraph summary, a full scene, and finally, a slo-o-o-o-wed down version of the scene. It may help to think of filmmaking. Begin with a panoramic establishing shot and let the camera keep zooming in, closer and closer, to an extreme close-up.
