This is quite an interesting technique that I could implement into my own film, the technique give the shot (as stated in the video) a pseudo-hand held look that could be quite effective and could add to the film's verisimilitude, as this sort of camera movement evokes real-life (which to an extent, that's why it's used frequently in the TV show 'Breaking Bad') as it mirrors how people move when observing an event, allowing the camera to be voyeuristic surrogate for the audience.
This all leads to the increase in the realism of the scene and the audiences' suspension of belief, thus allowing themselves alot more in the action taking place. So, on the a pretty good technique, and considering my own production will feature flirtations with horror type subject matter, this technique will add a lot to it (as typically effective horror films rely on the audience suspending their belief and investing themselves in the characters (whereas bad horror films turn viewers off, making them actually want to see the characters die in spectacularly graphic ways)so that the audience actually wants to see them persevere and survive, so if I use this technique it will fit with the conventions of this genre and make the audience invest more of themselves in the film).
