Abstract:	"This thesis paper focuses on shot design and color application in 'In the Mood for Love' (2000), which features Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung, and is regarded as one of director Wong Kar Wai's best films. The remarkable shot design and color application of Wong Kar Wai (who served as both producer and director on this feature) are essential for the success of the film. This research consists of two parts: the first is a discussion regarding the shot design and colors used in 'In the Mood for Love'; the second serves to analyze how 'In the Mood for Love' exerts influence on the thesis film 'Margie’s Christmas Eve'." --Abstract *Keywords: location choosing, Wong Kar Wai, In the Mood for Love, colors, shot design, storytelling, frames-within-frames, lines
