The article discussed many examples of how design played a significant role in movies. There were several examples but three of them really stood out to me. The first one was from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. In the photo described, there are three large men and one dainty lady. It discusses the contrast because all of the men are wearing black while the lady is wearing a light pink dress so it gives a nice balance to the design. Also the pink shows a lot of irony because pink is such a nice light color, but in the movie the character in the pink is actually very mean and evil.
The second example was from the movie, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. The focus on this movie was by having the design represent the mood of the movie. The photo and the entire movie is in a very gloomy color, because it is representing the evil mood of the movie. It is a very dreary setting for a very dreary movie. The gloomy colors do a great job of representing the mood of the movie.
The third and final example that I really liked was from the movie The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. The example of design discussed was having a focal point. In the picture there is four people and only one of them is glowing. This automatically puts the viewer's focus on the glowing character. By having a focal point, it is a way to really grab the viewer's interest to a specific character or object. It is a great way to show importance of something in the movie.
I thought these three examples are all very helpful and something I could use to make my movie more successful.
