## Resource

This episode is brought to you by TeachHoops.com, where ready-made film-study frameworks and practice plans give you hours of your life back every week. Today we fix the most common mistake in film study: pressing play without framing the clip. When you don't tell players exactly what to look for, they watch like fans — tracking the ball, admiring the highlight, missing the lesson entirely. We break down the framing method: one clip, one concept, one question asked before the video ever starts. You'll learn how to write a single-sentence frame for any teaching point, how framing transforms passive viewers into active problem-solvers, and why the question you ask before the clip matters more than anything you say after it. We also cover how to check for understanding without turning film sessions into interrogations that make players dread the room. Film doesn't lie, but unframed film doesn't teach either. This episode gives you a repeatable structure that makes every minute in the film room transfer to the floor. Grab the complete film-study system and session templates at https://teachhoops.com/.
