An interesting then / now filmmaking comparison will be on hand this summer with the new version of Ghostbusters directed by Paul Feig and starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon (with the classic original having been directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis). Here is an article that provides some insight into decision making processes that students do not often think about: art direction and visual design.

Put on your Proton Packs and get ready to bust some ghosts!
