Avant Garde? Moonrise Kingdom


For this weeks movie Moonrise Kingdom, we are treated to a very different method of camerawork where mostly every scene is shot as if its a portrait where you have to analyze the scenery, the foreground, and the background, along with other elements within the shot. I selected this shot because of how all the shadows make it appear as a painting. This is especially attributed with the roof of the building in the background being faded hence to emphasize that building is far away. The contrast of colors between blue and black makes me think of a certain style of cartoons which just use of the actions of the characters to tell the story. I'll have to say the color scheme really reminds me of some of the movie studio logos that use that same colors like Spyglass Entertainment or even Amblin Entertainment.
