Pedro Almodovar is a Spanish film director, screenwriter and producer. This is a snapshot taken from his film "Los Abrazos Rotos" from 2009. Almodovar's signature is producing media products with heavy emphasis on visual composition coupled with taboo subjects and narratives. In this intance, Almodovar carefully uses contrasting colours and patterns to visually encapsulate his vision. The use of bright reds, yellows and orange with busy patterns and one-off pieces of furniture, lends his films with a mise-en-scéne like no other. Using visual elements of eras gone by and contrasting with present day aesthetics demonstrates how a media product can effectively mirror a director's vision with careful thought and precision. Almodovar's media products, encapsulate all of the above wonderfully.
