After that, the cinematography is dissected and the creative decisions and behind-the-scenes techniques used by the director are addressed. Third, Connor, Cameron and Aaron discuss the overall flow of the film. Fourth, the score's relationship to the movie often "makes or breaks" the emotion during particular parts of a fim.
