Mustache & LineSavant
Mustache Mustache
I was just reminiscing about those old 1920s art deco cinema sets and how the straight, clean lines in the backgrounds really frame the actors. Have you ever noticed how those lines guide your eye across the frame?

Yeah, the straight lines act like a grid. They pull the eye forward, making the actors the center of the map. The symmetry frames the action and gives the scene a clean, directed look.

Sounds just like the tidy, upright frames of a good old newsreel—everything’s orderly, the actors stay front and center, and you can’t miss the action because the picture’s pulling you straight into it.

Exactly. The frame becomes a compass: vertical edges lock the eye, horizontal lines keep focus, so the drama can’t slip off center. It’s all about the geometry of attention.
