Alfred Hitchcock: The Rules of Visual Storytelling

Alfred Hitchcock was perhaps the greatest cinematic storyteller of the 20th century. His films created a visual language which have influenced virtually every director since.
In this video essay I examine how Hitchcock tells the story through his use of the camera to tell stories cinematically. In particular I focus on his thoughtful use of long shots and close-ups to convey plot and emotion visually. I take in many of his best films, from Strangers on a Train, through to Vertigo and Psycho, to examine how he uses many of these techniques.

Rule 1: Start Long and then come closer as the scene progresses Rule 2: Close ups should be used to show an object is about to become important to the story Rule 3: Focus on the Hands to express how the character is feeling

Close ups have many uses. Knowing how to use them is what makes a director good or bad. You can use close ups, to show what a character is focusing on. look at polterguiest near the end when they are trying to get in the car. Close ups show the pockets, and the keys, and the faces of the kids screaming. You can use close ups to make the audience uncomfortable like in LOTR Return of the king, when the stuart sends his son off to die, while pippen sings. focusing on the eating. Or in Aliens 3 when they do super close ups of the feet on the cold floor, and the needle going into Rypley's arm. You can use close ups to show what the director wants you to think is important. like the cup water ripples in Jurrassic Park, before the TRex shows up, or the glass penguin in Missery when he puts it back in the wrong place. Or you can mess it all up, like they do in Open Water at the very start of the film when the couple is getting ready to leave, and show close ups of her purse, and the door handle, and the cellphone.

One of favourite hand closeups is from pride and prejudice where we see Darcys hand after helping Elizabeth into a carriage. Very simple and no dialogue but it conveys exactly how he is feeling. Amazing stuff, had no idea it traces back to Hitchcock 😊

Great video thanks...He was a master. I actually met the lady who was originally his script girl in the UK ...who left the UK with the family when he went to the USA and she was then his daughter's nanny later housekeeper before returning to the UK. She told me there was a knock on the door one day and she answered it. It was Cary Grant who said "Hi" to her and kissed her on the cheek. She told me she didn't wash for a week. I also saw and waved to Pat Hitchcock (his daughter) when she came to the UK and took her ex-nanny out to lunch. She always remembered her nanny. Pat was dressed in a red trouser suit and was with another lady and a man who drove the car. She (the nanny) had a photo of Hitch standing beside a bus...he was holding a sign that said "Hallo ...." But I have forgotten her name...darn it...anyone remember?

Hitchcock's visual approach gave him the ability to tell a story that could reach the viewer in the most personal way, as if to touch an immensely private and personal feeling or memory that everyone has within themselves. This is done without any dialog at all. Here are just a few examples: In "Spellbound," there is a scene with "Dr. Constance Petersen" (Ingrid Bergman) going up the stairs to her room where she looks at the light coming out from under the closed door of the room of "Dr. Anthony Edwardes" (Gregory Peck,) with whom she has fallen in love. In "Vertigo," there is a scene where "Scottie" (James Stewart) just loiters outside Ernie's Restaurant, inconsolable over the loss of "Madeline" (Kim Novak,) with whom he had fallen in love. In his 1956 version of "The Man Who Knew Too Much," there is a scene in the embassy where "Doctor McKenna" (James Stewart) finds his son "Hank" (Christopher Olsen) hidden in an upstairs room. As he reaches to grab him, "Edward Drayton" (Bernard Miles) comes up behind him with a gun and tells him to stop, evoking an intense expression of frustration. As for using establishing shots and then closing in to tell a story, one of my favorite examples that I use to discuss this technique is from the premiere episode of television's "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" called "Revenge" (directed by Hitchcock himself) with Ralph Meeker and Vera Miles. In the first 65 seconds, without any dialog at all, we are already made aware of these things: The location is a seaside residential trailer park in California, the story begins in one of the trailers there, people are just getting up for the day, the principals in the story are a young happily-married couple from Connecticut, their trailer is neat and orderly and the husband is gets up at 6 AM. I have never seen any other director be able to tell a visual story with such aplomb.

Thanks, this is a great video, --but, at 5:25 that was in fact, the real hand of the actress, with her fingers opening up, to deftly lift the saucer and cup, then open again, to release it at the other table. Her arm and hand are in proper proportion to the rest of her body, which is obvious when the scene is viewed in it's entirety. It's clearly hers. There's no need for an enlarged prop for that scene. --You were right about the large prop phone and finger used to to dial the M for murder. The reason Hitchcock had them made up that way was because the 3-D camera he used to shoot the movie wasn't capable of focusing on a close-up object. He needed a giant prop phone and finger made, in order to get what appeared to be a close up, frame filling shot.
@Cuetips1000
@Cuetips1000 2 года назад
I absolute agree with you: In that scene at 5:25 we see the real hand of the actress and there was no need for an oversized prop hand. Hitchcock accented the hand by using a small cup with a small bottom plate (they look like doll's house items and make appear the real hand bigger). It is possible that at 1:14 we also see an oversized prop finger with oversized font, but I am not 100 % sure. I can imagine that the main problem of that time were the technical limitations of the camera gear. It didn't exist lenses with real macro-capabilities or very short minimum focus distance. So Hitchcock was in need of big props to do the extreme close-up shots. But as said: I am only guessing.

We need those "unoriginal shots". You know I would love so much to see those "unoriginal shots with the creepy characters" the problem is no one has the skill or sensibility to do them anymore. I don't know why but in today's cinema those "unoriginal shot" have completely disappeared. Most of the movies nowdays are so frustrating and boring, but not because the story is boring. The issue is directors tend to use words to supplement their inability of making a visual story. That's the problem I think...

Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the struggles and madness in this world today, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. Christ says in John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] - (AMPLIFIED version) NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus.

@alanlawrence2954
@alanlawrence2954 Год назад
Hitchcock found the actual shooting of movies annoying. It was the pre-production where he thought the creative content should be 90% locked down, with script editing and a storyboard that gave the crew, especially the camera crew, precise shot directions. I was a storyboard artist in the 80s and 90s. Directors often asked me for visual ideas, suggested by the script. Hitchcock didn't like improvising on set, and for good reason. A movie director, to him, was someone who stays to an actor, "Walk to camera and look scared." It was the actor's job to internalise those minimal instructions and make the shot look convincing. He said once... "Actors are cattle."
