  1. All right.
  2. So this is my presentation on Alfred Hitchcock, the master
  3. of suspense.
  4. Mhm step.
  5. He was considered the master of suspense because in his
  6. films he used ah, lot of psychological suspense, which is
  7. where you he would mainly focus on the mental or
  8. emotional, um, conditions of characters and really focus on those
  9. in play.
  10. The story off of them, Um, he also when he
  11. was making films, he didn't have much technology to do
  12. special effects or anything.
  13. So he really, um, he used intriguing scenarios and characters
  14. rather than a bunch of special effects and c g.
  15. I and everything, and he would capture the attention of
  16. watchers with simple means rather than the C D and
  17. everything. So I compared rear when No versus Psycho and
  18. in Rear Window they It's their sort of similar, but
  19. they're also very different.
  20. They're similar in the sense that he used some of
  21. the same filmmaking tools, like their point of views, the
  22. point of view shots and, like close ups and everything.
  23. And he had again very good actors.
  24. He was kind of known for that, so but they
  25. they didn't have a lot of differences so in rear
  26. window rear window.
  27. It was more of an uncomfortable feeling rather than it
  28. was suspenseful.
  29. But it wasn't.
  30. It was meant to make you feel more kind of
  31. on the edge of your seat.
  32. Everything and it also it had a feel good ending
  33. and I would happy feel good ending.
  34. And it also you kind of in the beginning when
  35. he's in the chair and he's unable to move you.
  36. Kinda intense is his point of view.
  37. You kind of feel useless because you he's stuck in
  38. his apartment and he could only see how.
  39. And you can't really do much about it.
  40. So then in Psycho you it gives us more of
  41. an anxious sort of feeling rather than uncomfortable.
  42. And, um, there's a lot of suspense in that film.
  43. There's a lot.
  44. There's suspense when the mother kills marry on Marien.
  45. I didn't actually watch the movie, but I thought I
  46. read a lot of reviews and these were the main
  47. things. And then, um, it really keeps you on the
  48. edge of your seat because it's such a messed up
  49. psycho thing.
  50. That's yeah, zzz crazy.
  51. But so, yeah, they're they're just they're different kind of
  52. movies. And then, um, if I were to use some
  53. of hiss pieces, I would use his music choice point
  54. of view shots in his film editing because those were
  55. three things that he was very well known for.
  56. And they really helped him to be successful in the
  57. filmmaking world because he did them so well and he
  58. was able to incorporate them in all of his films.
  59. So, yeah, that's my presentation about Alfred Hitchcock.
