Use Of Technology, Techniques and Styles

Today i am going to show you the use of technology, techniques and styles used in 'Koyaaniskatsi' and 'Girl Chewing Gum'. I think that the technique used in 'Koyaaniskatsi' is used very well due to the amount of technology they had access to in 1982. The technique i feel they were using was to show the viewers something in a very blunt way, for example, the way they put negative music behind a scene was to show that it is obviously a very negative scene. However, in 'Girl Chewing Gum' which was made in 1976 there was not alot of access to technology which made it a lot harder to understand the technique or style they were looking for.

• Remember you need to view these in the context of the time they were created. Koyaanisqatsi was modern at the time it was created? Try and tie these together and discuss them under the same headings i.e. Effects, Styles or production costs? How have aspects such technology or money affected the overall meaning of the work, or is it just the look of the work that changes?
