Film Noir Collage

Collage

As you can see from the collage above there are a few similarities. You can tell that shadows are very important in film noir as many of the shots seem to focus or use shadows to make it more enigmatic. Smoking is also common in film noir, it ties in with how smoke and steam is used to mask characters, it is also a classic film noir prop, like lamp posts and looking glasses.

  1. Well chosen images. This would be strengthend by including a couple of sentences underneath the montage to explore a few of the features: writing a sentence or two on lighting, or costume, or sets/ locations would add to this post. It could be merged with your other film noir work to strengthen this also.

    Label all film noir work as G321 Thriller Research.
