Abstract

A passion for food is a central element of Ratatouille. The audience must identify with the main characters' love of good food in order to understand the characters' motivations. When it comes to lighting the film, this means that a guiding principle was to make food look delicious so that the audience would be able to imagine the smell and taste of it.
