-Focus: This is when you focus on an object or when you don't focus on an object this gives of a blurry effect. This technique can become very useful because it can tell the audience what they should be focusing on. For example you could have your main character focused and the background blurred.   

This is a good example of focusing the camera on an important character the audience should be focusing on whilst the background is blurred out with the less likely to be focusing on.

-mystery: to create this with a camera you could obscures the face of a character, use tight shots or some blurry close ups of a characters face
