| Description: | Introducing Gerac, a system of gear manufacturing from the 1950's. Discussed in this film are the wide array of gear uses (CU, selection of gears against a black BG, a spinning globe in the upper right frame; low angle wide LS of a train hurtling towards camera; tight LS of mid '50's American model cars on a very busy street on a sunny afternoon; tight LS of a middle aged woman in short shorts using a lawnmower outside her two story white house) and the elementary production of gears by Gerac. The colors in this film are distinct and beautiful, and the shadows are rich in depth. Straight and simple narration, very familiar to this genre. | |
