500 Days of Summer is a love story that isn’t quite a love story. The guy doesn’t get the girl. They do not go skipping into the sunset and everything is not okay. It has the two best actors (Joseph Gordon-Levitt and\u00a0Zooey Deschanel).\u00a0500 Days of Summer is about realizing how blind you can be in trying to make a relationship work and how important it is to live after a break up.<\/p>\n

The movie has three major plots. Part 1, the guy and girl are happily dating and are enjoying the relationship. Part 2, the boy is heartbroken and does not understand why she broke up with him. Part 3, the boy sees the relationship\u00a0for what it really was. The boy lets Summer go and meets Autumn.\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

This is seen in the barcode because the colors follow a similar pattern. During part A, the movie is full of bright colors and positive moments. Part B during the breakup is\u00a0 a hard time for the protagonist and so it is filmed in a different style. it rains in most of the scenes, the actor dresses in darker colors and stays in places with less light. The scenes are\u00a0aesthetically<\/span>\u00a0darker. Part 3 is the turning moment for the film. The film is brighter but in a more positive way. The colors are more rich and genuine.<\/p>\n

Upon examining the z projection image of “500 Days of Summer,” the first thing we noticed was the two shapes in the middle that looks like two people facing each other. Throughout the movie, Tom and Summer are constantly shown side by side – it is a “love story” for all intents and purposes, and it makes sense that their shapes would show up in the compilation of the photos.\u00a0 \"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

There is a line down the middle of the image that is not simply due to the credits rolling at the end. In fact, if you look closer you can see two distinct squares within the image. There are multiple times in the movie where comparisons and other clips are shown side by side. One of those sequences is where we get the words “expectations” and “reality” that you can make out at the bottom of the image.<\/span><\/p>\n

The colors of the image aren’t surprising. There is a recurring\u00a0shot that counts the number of days since Tom met Summer and it is a grayish green. Seeing that color show up is to be expected. The lack of vibrant colors could also be due to the fact there are many moments where the film shows scenes in black and white. This could have a diluting effect on the final sum image.<\/span><\/p>\n

By putting the collection of images from the movie together,\u00a0\u00a0it is really easy to see the tone of the movie. Like we mentioned before, this isn\u2019t a happy love story. And the image portrays that with the colors that are most prominent in the movie.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
