1 discuss both past and current artists and works

Koyaanisqasi and Gisele Kerosene have a lot of similarities, as they were made around the same sort of time. They were both made in the 80s, which means the technology in that time period was the same. Unlike the girl chewing gum, which was made in the 70s.
Koyaanisqasi use music to get the message across, it has no spoken dialog, which is the same as Gisele Kerosene, but in girl chewing gum there is spoken dialog throughout the film, and there is no music. Koyaanisqasi uses time-lapse photography in most of the film, Gisele Kerosene also uses time-lapse photography throughout the whole film as well. But girl chewing Gum didn’t have any of this technology, as it wasn’t available then, they had simple camera shots. Koyaanisqasi has a simple narrative structure, Gisele Kerosene also has a simple narrative structure.
But girl chewing gum has more of a complex narrative structure. Girl chewing gun is in black and white and koyaanisqasi and Gisele Kerosene is in colour. koyaaniqasi and girl chewing gum are both ture life experience, but if you put koyaanisqasi next to Doll face you an see the difference in technology as they were made years apart, doll face is computer generated, it is also edited a lot and koyaanisqasi is made from life situation and has no computer generated technology.
