Eisenstien and Hitchcock

Some film techniques that Eisenstein used in the Odessa steps sequence were close-ups, tracking shots, and use of music to buildup suspense are just a few. After watching the shower scene in Psycho some film techniques to compare and contrast were the use of music and the close-ups, also the slow motion of the scene developing showing everything coming to fruition builds up anticipation. What makes the scene memorable is everything I just mentioned and at certain points it moved fast and then slow.
