How do you write 30 seconds as three beats?
A beat is one small part of the story. Split the 30 seconds into three beats of 10 seconds each, and write one line per beat that says what moves and where the camera looks.
Beat 1 (0 to 10 seconds) sets the place. Beat 2 (10 to 20 seconds) shows the action. Beat 3 (20 to 30 seconds) lands the ending.
Example beats: "0-10 s: a baker opens her shop door at dawn, warm light spills onto the street. 10-20 s: flour dust floats in the window light as she kneads dough. 20-30 s: the first customer takes a warm loaf and the door bell rings."
