Spatial and Temporal Sequence

The Movie: Cinema Paradiso
Director: Giuseppe Tornatore







I decided to study 3 different aspects of the scene.
The first one is foregroung(red), middle ground(yellow) and background(blue), to be more specific the shift of elements between those 3.
The second one is the use of flat image and perspective.
The third one would be surface and volume.
The elements I am using are the old guy and the kid, the movie and the public and their shifts as they frame scenes, work as backgrounds, or shift from surface and plane to volume.



flat image,
the public acts as a plane


perspective
the kid and the proyector frame the "movie".


flat image
the movie acts as surface against the wall which is a plane.


perspective
the window frames the view.
change of scale from enclosed to open space


perspective
the public is acting as a volume this time and has shifted to the foreground.


perspective
the public shifted to middle ground .


flat image
the public and the movie act as planes and overlap and links the next scene where the movie and the public become a volume.
