SEXXXY Paragraph - 
In the real world kitchen scene, Lighting and colour are used effectively to show looks can be deceiving.  We see this when Coraline is eating breakfast with her real parents. The room has natural lighting flowing through the window in the room, creating a bright light that is filling every corner of the room. The natural lighting has a white tone, making the room feel cold and miserable. The color of the room is white and grey making it look old and run down. This makes the audience understand that they are not a happy family and Coraline doesn't like it there. The director made the real kitchen seem old and boring to make the other world more appealing, this shows us that Coraline is unhappy in the dull real world. This also worked well with the setting as the cloudy grey sky outside the window and the old worn down kitchen adds to the cold and dull feeling. This can be juxtaposed to the scene in the other world, where Coraline is eating dinner with her other parents.
