1. What film techniques/aspects are there? I re-watched the video and realized that at the start the lighting was very dim and around the end it was light. They also yous a variety of different camera angles. Some of the camera angles they used were over the shoulder, close up shot and Pov shot.
2. What do they sound and look like? There was one Pov shot where Eddie was looking at the pill. There was background music.
3. What are their effects?  The detector uses voice overs, background music, A effect of the camera making things look wobbly and text.
4. Why do you think the director used them? I think he want to make the movie look more interesting. He didn't want to give away the whole movie so keep some important details out.
5. How do the aspects combine for effect with other aspects? The lighting changes from dull to brighter. At the start it makes things look sad but in the middle-to end it makes things look happy. This works well because around that time things where going well for Eddie.
