How every film is hand-scored →

A feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them.

Our read · Objectified (2009) reads as a warm, measured, grounded documentary entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook. Hand-scored on twelve axes of taste — mood, pacing, weirdness, hope, stakes, humour, reality, density, warmth, auteur, intensity, and era — with a derived palette drawn from its dominant cinematography.
