Duration- how long shapes are held 
The shift in mystery, to elusive, to enchanting, it’s as if the music consumes you but not in a dangerous way but like a “bitch be careful” -->

I Need Love by LL Cool J--> The composition is a deconstruction or a decomposed version of the song 

"the kind of that thing of turn in on themselves and create a kind of infinity." --> alternate universe

Like a Trip
Iterations of “Buked” “Episodes” and “Members but less sentimental 

The dispersal, drive, and persistence of “Vespers”

“Subtle conjuring” or “nuanced conjuring” 

The shifts from agile to abandoned —> there’s a submission to the music, then there’s this abrupt refusal—> the music shifts (around 21:00ish) before the series of duets

In moonlight, “black boys look blue” portrays how the blue radiates off the individuals. Blue represents tranquility, peace and especially in this film, finding your true self from within rather than from what others say.]]> 2021-10-03 16:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/uwazizamani/ig54d11gpxd4r0pl/wish/1787621643 The 80s and 90s uwazizamani https://padlet.com/uwazizamani/ig54d11gpxd4r0pl/wish/1794415690 -Unconventional way of working for that time ]]> 2021-10-05 20:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/uwazizamani/ig54d11gpxd4r0pl/wish/1794415690 Hype Williams use of blue light in Belly uwazizamani https://padlet.com/uwazizamani/ig54d11gpxd4r0pl/wish/1870834371 Buns and Sincere enter into the club the scene shifts from neutral to this black light effect. All figures appear blue. This made me think about the negatives after film is developed.
