Story Telling - Burberry - the use of Body language in a narrative for stills and film
















Please examine the shot sequence here from the top to last shot to see how the referenced simulated relationship between Edie Redmaine and Cara Delevigne develops. It is no accident ! this is a highly correographed shoot using coupling body language to make us believe it is real. Note the mirroring, spooning, confiding, flirting and commitment attachment messages.
