week 9

Metroplis and Spirited Away use colors and tones to create a shadow/light effect that makes the characters seem real. The darkening of colors to create shadows along with the lightening of them to create highlights, gives objects and characters a 3d element. The perspective of the camera, being 3rd person normally, as well as the motions and panning give the feeling of a large world. The way that it floats from scene to scene, and in and out of areas is a seemless way to allow the viewer to become immersed in the worlds, and feel the multi-level presence.
