Book Presentation:
The professions in decor immediately call to mind cinema’s artisanal quality and the constant tension between old-fashioned, manual technical elements, adapted from worlds unconnected to cinema, and cutting-edge technology which have compelled professions in film decor to be constantly changing. More than any other profession in cinema, they reveal the necessary partnership with every other profession, in a spirit of cooperation but also sometimes of strong rivalry, exacerbated by the rise of digital tools. As this book will show, the diversity of film decor professions reflects the variety of technical elements and technicians, how they have changed throughout film history and the need, whatever the period or style of film, to join art, technical matters and economics in order to transform the written lines in the script into cinematic space.
