I made a YouTube video discussing camera techniques, mise en scene and themes which occur in the Shower scene. The Shower scene in Psycho revolutionized Horror movies, in terms of making the transition between Gothic to the Slasher genre. Not only did Alfred Hitchcock influence the genre, he also changed the way sound is used for impact.
Deconstructing the shower scene made me realize every aspect contributes to the overall feel. For example in terms of sound in the shower scene, e.g the use of "Psycho Strings" emphasizes the shock the audience feels since Marion is being murdered. In my Horror trailer I hope to gain inspiration from Hitchcock, especially in terms of sound and camera techniques.
