Interaction with doors and windows ... AGAIN =/



I like this image because it is abit dark, it has an edge to it as though something is going to happen - if this were an image from a film. The only lighting is coming through the window and reflects from the womens dress, it is a complete contrast in colours and lighting. There is a sense of mystery as to who the women is, why she is wearing that dress, who she is waiting for maybe - this makes you begin to think about the image in a different way.

An example of the Film Classifications from the BBFC ...

Film Classifications ...

Cinema
The British Board of Film Classification is an independent, non-governmental body, which has classified cinema films since 1913, and video since 1985.
The Board was set up by the film industry in order to bring a degree of uniformity to the classification of films nationally.

Video
In 1984 Parliament passed the Video Recordings Act. This act stated that, subject to certain exemptions, video recordings offered for sale or hire commercially in the UK must be classified by an authority designated by the Secretary of State. The President and Vice Presidents of the BBFC were so designated, and charged with applying the new test of 'suitability for viewing in the home'. At this point the Board's title was changed to British Board of Film Classification to reflect the fact that classification plays a far larger part in the Board's work than censorship.
