Framing

Tony Peake in the biography of Derek Jarman on the filming of The Tempest

The lighting was kept as low as possible, the camera as static, so that not only would the action seem to emerge, dreamlike, from the shadows, it would also unfold within each shot 'as within a proscenium arch'.

I am struck by the progression of from film through dream to theatre.


And so for day 123
