Editing• Mostly slow build up during the film.• Quick editing while on villain.• Jump cuts• Zooming shots• Establishing shot – isolated.• Close ups
Camera Work• Low angle – emphasizes the
monsters terror.• High angle – victims lack of power.• Pan and tract during chase.• P.O.V – empathy with victim.
These don’t really apply because there is no clear victim or monster.

flashbacks.• Sometimes includes a love story.
