Story x Story #55: We Came For The Intentional Confusion (Perfect Blue)

Gina February 11, 2021 No Comments
Season 3 starts here! Nigel and Tazziii are back with a brand new season of Story x Story and we welcome Laura and Donavan of Melanin Gamers to discuss Satoshi Kon’s animation thriller, Perfect Blue. We get into  the disturbingly relevant themes and expert use of colour and symbolism in this feature length anime. This episode’s storytelling tip is about using foreshadowing and misdirection in your stories.
 
Stories we’re enjoying this week: My Love Story, Mobile Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, Alien Isolation, Queen’s Gambit
