The Shining At the start of this clip there is a close up point of view shot of the women looking at the pieces of paper.

The first micro-feature i used within the scene was cinematography and in the second scene i focused on mise en scene, these micro elements would allow to add conventions of a horror film easier and show them more effectively within the scenes.
