1990s on screen

A recent-history street needs more than a nineties vehicle, with shopfronts and carried objects helping to distinguish the scene from an otherwise similar present-day location. A village or outer-suburban route calls for its own references, since the mix of vehicles and roadside activity can differ from a city-centre street scene. Workplace car parks can offer a restrained period setting for dialogue, but a researched age mix is preferable to rows of cars chosen only for matching shapes.

Possible roles in a production

Side-profile stills can give a coupé a clear place beside wardrobe and location, provided the photographer knows which parts of the car need to remain visible. A departure from a quiet address can let the coupé’s shape remain incidental, keeping the audience’s attention on the last exchange before the journey. For a close portrait through a window, the camera position should be tried with the supplied coupé rather than assumed from a catalogue photograph.
