Here it is, the last post. For this
joyous sad occasion I'd like to do something I usually never do in this blog. I'm going to talk about a film!
Paranorman was probably my absolute favourite film of 2012. Created by Laika, the makers of Coraline, they truly outdid themselves this time. It includes some stunning use of colour, such as this lovely use of a yellow-green/purple-red contrast, depicted in the pictures below. I always have a great deal of respect for stop motion, it's clear so much love goes into these films, and into ParaNorman in particular. Not only does it have perfect miniatures, lighting and colours, the storytelling of a simple and yet complicated tale is masterfully executed. ParaNorman never stops being a joy to watch despite its serious theme and undertone.

| Simple use of cloth creates beautifully lighted skies. |
|
 |
| Beautiful miniatures and cinematography. |
 |
| Desaturated colours reinforce how much Norman dislikes school. |
