Movie watchers, like readers, use the setting to help them understand the mood and
tone of the story. They do this by looking at color, environment, and sound.
The grey of the cartoon contrasted with the red of the kiss practically begs for kids to talk
about the significance of color choice. We can hope kids notice the stark, tall, uniform
office buildings, the mindless uniformity of the workers. Even the harsh rectangularity
of the boss versus the kinder roundness of our hero and heroine–it all contributes to the
mood and meaning of the piece.
