Voyageristic view, women being sexualized on screen
Films getting us to identify with people (men) in a rather non consensual way
Not just images but images he’s looking at and we’re supposed to idenity with
Can be used to ojectify and reduce women to their body
Or communication desire

“To put into the scene”
Basically everything that’s in front of the camera
The other side of cinematography
2 parts
- Setting/Props
Starwars the me-san-scene or whatever is more important than cinematography
Hogwarts visual design and world
Visualizing world that felt like the book
Metropolice scientific dystopion or utipion
Blade Runner influenced by Metropolice and then became an influence itself
Set design winners are mostly past future or fantasy
2022 all winners for production design and 2023 2024
Only 2019 one film Parasite not set in something else
Most noticable
Everything everywhere all at one, Pyscho, Mad Max Fury Road
The circle in WWAAO is represented around a lot like a symbol or theme or sum
Little Raccoon
Circle visual design incoorported in the sets, very ymeaningful. Wsahing machine, umbrella, elevator, phone, on paper, the bagel or nihilism belief life is menaingless which is how joy feels. Life has no meaning so we reject all moral principles
The googly eye is existentialism, we define that meaning but we are free agents with no meaning we get to define it ourselves. Yin and Yang google eye vs bagel.
- Costumes/Makeup
First starwars like cartoons they never change
IT the yellow coat and the clown
Even the simple ones are intentional
Create sollioutte so you see them and immediately know who it is
Everything has to pop and not blend in even if you cast people who look similar that’s an issue
Differientieation
Can communicate character change over time

Might wanna sleep with you, steal your money, set you up as the criminal at the end
Left howling wailing in the night

Flaws Souls with Big Dreams
Fatality, Social Justice, Sexual love one way ticket to hell
Everything after the 60s is the Neo Noir
The split half

“There’s almost nothing that seperates us yet there is a seperation” STOPPPP
Can’t believe what you see or hear but you can believe what you feel
Woman, hands, lust - man, hands, money and violence
Moisture texture themes
Transitional shots are cool, “dream-like”
When he shoots the “main” guy the camera tilts with him falling and moves on impact
