I think that the part of the editing that made a significant contribution of the story telling is at 1:54 where there is a close up shot than it cuts away to an extreme long shot where it's a confrontation between both the box and the guy. It than cuts to an over the shoulder shot of the guy with the box rolling away towards the metal case like thing. The feeling of the piece is very tense. I feel that it is why it is a major contribution. The relationship between both the music and the shot where it goes from tight to open to tight again makes the scene tense. The music is very calm and serene in a way as if the box would listen to the guy and the fact that the close up shot was short and the long shot was a little long it sort of lingered. The lingering of the long shot also helps create the beginning of the tension. One is at the edge of their seat when the box gets closer to the metal case like thing and the music gets louder. As the music gets louder and there is more movement and the guys gets close to it, than it the tension raises. I think that this was a very important contribution of the story telling. It helps create an outcome. and it also helps lead to the result.
