- 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.
