This scene, from Jim Henson's Labyrinth, depicts Sarah tripping balls after taking a bite from a psychedelic peach sent to her from Jareth. It then cross-fades to Jareth juggling some bubbles and blowing them into the sky, they eventually drift away from the goblin city into the woods where she has collapsed, to hypnotize and trap her in some kind of dream masquerade. When his bubble-visions reach her, the music-box-dancer in the bubble transforms into a vision of herself, in a pretty dress, which is how the film transitions to her dream in which Jareth, the goblin king, makes another attempt to seduce her with dreams.
I sketched the main shots that seemed to best narrate the sequence. I noticed the backgrounds are always used to frame the characters, and that the close-up reaction shots zoom in gradually to draw in the viewer.
