In this video we see the female character filming herself as she is terrified of the events going on and this signifies a first person point of view but through the camera. As i was researching point of view techniques in films, I came across The Blair Witch Project and found it interesting how characters using a camera also shows the audience the character's point of view as they are looking through the lens. However, this scene features the character filming herself rather than being behind the camera and creates a powerful impact on the horror film.

Another scene in the film show a male character filming the other 2 leads through the camera previously mentioned and this shows the audience his point of view, even though he is using a camera. This still allows us to see his point of view and the characters are essentially looking at him rather than the camera, as they are overtly frightened and frustrated at the events occurring in the film's narrative.
