This is the title sequence of the movie “The French Dispatch”.

I focus on the subject of “observation”, and want to use “frames” to convey various ways of observation.

The film is a love letter to journalists, and journalists are the main characters in the film. They are all from the United States, writing column reports as foreigners, journalists, and a third-party perspective. To report local news, they need to observe, notice, and document what is happening in the small town.

這是電影《法蘭西特派週報》的片頭。
我將「觀察」這個概念延伸,用「框架」來傳達各種觀察方式。

該片是一封寫給記者的情書,而記者則是影片的主角。他們都來自美國,以外國人、記者、第三人的視角撰寫專欄報道。為了報導當地新聞,他們需要觀察、注意並記錄小鎮上正在發生的事情。
