Camera:
There were close up on the hat sitting in leaves as thought its been discarded. This gives a odd establishing shot as it makes the audience confused of what is happening.
There are lots of low angle shots looking up at the magician as he is the most powerful character on screen at that time.
Sound:
The narrative over the top is a man telling a story although you don't realise until the end that it is a man in court reciting what had happened and the scene was a flashback.
There is a big build up in music (crescendo) then suddenly when the magician gets trapped in the water tank the music suddenly stops (tacet)
Editing:
There is CGI used when the lighting is generated. This makes the magic trick seem more impressive.
Props:
All the costumes are very smart you can see from the audience that they are in a upper class places as they are all dressed in suits and dresses.
Also you can tell that Michael Caine's character is in court as everyone around him is in robes and the judge has a hammer.
Lighting:
Very low key lighting whilst the magician is performing which is very juxtaposed compared to the high key lighting in the court.
