Long Take Film Analysis Gravity by Alfonso Cuaron
Architecture & Cinema: Place & Film - Long Take Analysis Opening Scene: 12:30 minutes
“The technology was never the motivation for making the film. We wanted to tell a story and it was about developing the technology that was the only way that this story could be told.” -David Heyman, Producer “The camera is always moving. There’s no up and there’s no down. There’s no right, there’s no left.” -Alfonso Cuaron, Director The opening take of the 2013 film Gravity sets the stage for both the wonder and the fear of outer space. The camera movement, the mise-en-scene, and the acting establish the trajectory for the rest of the film with constant, fluid camera movement, the anti-gravitational sensation portrayed by the camera and the actors, and by the chiaroscuro effect cast by light from the sun and reflected from Earth. The camera has ceaseless motion, sometimes slow and sometimes fast, sometimes holding steady as it passively observes a space ship disintegrate and sometimes spinning violently as it actively tracks an astronaut hurtling violently through space. The first 7:30 of the film follows the three on-screen astronauts as they go about routine work on a satellite. The astronauts learn that debris from a detonation gone wrong is coming their way and at that moment, the camera movement increases its pace—shifting its focus more frequently—and the auditory levels increase— adding a fast pulsating musical track to the diegetic sounds of radio static and heavy breathing. The visual effects of Gravity rely on technological innovation in order to manufacture sensations that cannot be captured on earth. The director, cinematographers, lighting designers, and the special effects designers all made use of the light box in order to animate the actors,objects, and camera as well as to mimic anti-gravity and capture lighting angles from the sun and earth. Three pieces of technology achieve this: the robotic camera, the light box, and the tilt rig. The robotic camera enables the camera to move independent of the laws of gravity by rotating 360°, and it enables the camera to simulate the motions of the actor floating into space. The light box projects images onto a five-sided box that enables the actor to respond to something more real than blackness, and it helped to more naturally light the actors since the earth took up 140° of vision which cannot be replicated by conventional lamps. Lastly, the tilt rig helped the actors achieve the sensation of anti-gravity as well as the sensation that their actions were out of their control. Together, these elements provide a virtual window for not just the audience, but also the actors. The virtual window of Gravity is like a panopticon for the actor; there is no framed view, instead all views, for 360° around them are their view. The audience, though their view is limited by the framing of the screen, experience this orbital perspective as well by the free motion of the camera.

Reflection Pavilion
Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, Washington, D.C.
The Reflection Pavilion is a cafe located at the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens in Washington, D.C. The concept developed as a reflection of the existing reflecting pools and takes advantage of the overall inspiration of ground, water, and sky. The pavilion is raised on pillars to allow for minimum ground disturbance. The central exterior porch area balances the overall composition by including a central pool that is open to the sky.

Case Study | SCAD Museum of Art

Savannah, Georgia
This is a study of an adaptive re-use project, with special attention to architectonic expression and the response of the building to the surrounding context. The architectonic expression is how the architectural “identity” and public presence of the existing building HISTORIC CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RAILROAD DEPOT GROUNDS is modified by the intervention. For this project, the identity of the new and old is physically present. The underlying concept of the project is the dialogue between the existing freight warehouse and the new museum, essentially telling a story of the past and the future. This transformation included different phases of Savannah College Of Art And Design transformation: subtraction, preservation, and addition.

SITE PHOTOGRAPH 3: Entrance To The Paper Street

Located in Takoma park is a series of paper streets, which are streets once planned to be built but have not due to various obstacles. Located in green, the separation of path at the stream, between the divided shorelines, was what was sought to be the obstacle in this location . However, the opportunity can be successful by connecting the separation by a bridge, as emulated from a near by tree that had fallen to create that exact connection. Due to the complexity of the stream that carves through the site, my design agenda includes an elevated path to allow water to flow beneath, as well as a bridge to connect the divided shoreline and to complete the separated path.

Design Build - Applause Cafe This design build project was in collaboration with The Clarice Performing Arts Center at the University of Maryland. With a group effort, our studio designed a transformation of an existing cafe with goals to connect the serving and seating area. With further development we also designed and built prototypes of furniture.

Exercise Frame - Ratio - Subject
My interests in film lead me to a study of various cinematic aspect ratios and how they relate to a frame. I took a series of photographs of around the University of Maryland and a project of my own to study how two different aspect ratios could change how a frame reacts to the viewers who experience the virtual window.
