The shots in that segment are mediums shots which establishes the TV show as normal and regular for the next shots to seem jarring due to the juxtaposition of tones . Then a balloon pops and it cuts straight to black with diegetic sounds of the monkey ( Gordy) shouting and other people's screams ( action code ) which serves as an abrupt tone shift to put the audience in the characters' shoes. Next, it cuts to a handheld shot that is moving through the set of the TV show. This long take has no backing track ,only mostly quiet diegetic noise , which creates a heavy sense of unease, enigma codes and builds tension throughout the scene. That shot ends with Gordy being in frame but mostly covered still keeping the sense of enigma and mystery.  It then harshly cuts to black then cuts to a medium s...
