I'm going back in the book a bit. Stewart references Disney's
Mulan when writing of dynamic space (see page 100-101). I love that she makes this reference!
Mulan has been a long-time favorite of mine. I remember even watching it when I was much younger, I distinctly noticed the dynamic "shots" that were captured within the animation. I got chills when the army advanced down the snowy mountain side before Mulan and her people. The camera angles showing off the palace captivated my attention and drew me in. Even at the end when Mulan slides down the string of Chinese lanterns from the roof, the shot reveals the mass of people below. Though the animation is simple, the movie is incredible because of the creators' approach to space.

Angle on the advancing army, they are just spilling over the side of the mountain. |

Love all these reflections. (Ha, no pun intended with the song title.) |

Peeking through the flowers, this has always been a favorite scene of mine. |
Now I want to watch it again...
