Writing acts, sequences and scenes

Can some one kindly show me how to write sequences if one chooses understanding as the objective story concern.

One technique I’ve tested against watching movies and noting sequences is devising questions. Here’s how I did it.

I can detect when the objective story turns in a major new direction (the drivers at roughly quarter points of the story). I looked up the signpost order for this objective story. I developed a skill to figure out the key question to be answered in the signpost climax.

So, I would develop a question sparking off each sequence, and is related to each signpost.
