1970s on screen

Residential streets and commercial centres offer different seventies textures, so a travelling scene benefits from references for both ends of the journey rather than one generic backdrop. Luggage and shopping can make a family departure easy to read, leaving costume and surrounding buildings to establish the seventies context without an explanatory close-up. A seventies neighbourhood can be built around ordinary comings and goings, letting the vehicles belong to the street instead of presenting them as exhibits.

Possible roles in a production

Wide exteriors require attention to the whole traffic mix, since a carefully chosen foreground classic cannot hide an unsuitable car passing in the distance. For a scene involving loaded belongings, the exact items should be rehearsed with the vehicle rather than assumed to fit from a photograph. Continuity photographs are useful when a classic is seen across several angles, particularly where doors, luggage and performers change position between takes.
