Make sure the content engages them and reels them in.
theater
audiences know they are safe.
You can control the intensity of that emotion by
placing the camera close or far away from those eyes.
The
camera should take on human qualities and roam around playfully looking
for something suspicious in a room.
Movies
began to rely on actors talking, and visual storytelling was almost forgotten.
(Truffaut) Always use the camera as more than just a camera.
One of your
characters must be pre-occupied with something during a dialogue scene.
Their eyes can then be distracted while the other person doesn't notice.
This is a good way to pull the audience into a character's secretive world.
Putting
an idea into the mind of the character without explaining it in dialogue
is done by using a point-of-view shot sequence.
Divide action
into a series of close-ups shown in succession. Don't avoid this
basic technique.
Instead,
carfully chose a close-up of a hand, an arm, a face, a gun falling to the
floor - tie them all together to tell a story.
Humor
is essential to Hitchcock storytelling. Pretend you are playing a practical
joke on the main character of your movie.
"Information" is essential to Hitchcock suspense; showing
the audience what the characters don’t see.
In Family Plot (1976) Hitchcock shows the audience that brake fluid is
leaking out of a car well before the characters find out about it.
When scenes are
built around dramatic tension, it doesn’t really matter what the story
is about.
