Within Len Lye’s “Rainbow Dance” the short film seems as though it was made in after effects, due to the over exposed images and the way they are placed like 2D figures onto the screen.

The film shows the movement of figures within the frame by still images being placed at different points on the screen. It makes it look as though the images are moving by placing over exposed 2D images of for example people jumping.

It is very symbolic of still images staying on the screen as though it is a collection of photographs in a montage to create the film.

It is a very creative way of making a Post Office advert without the dictation of what exactly it is promoting. It is a way of advertising without actually pushing the main idea of the product they are promoting.
