It is in the privacy of a room in the Royal Palace of Colorno that Baldrighi portrays the family of Don Filippo di Borbone, staging a performance that substantiates, in the small, great duchy, the enlightened march of court portraiture away from grandiloquent iconography, a demonstrative and absolute stage, towards an uncompromising and all-encompassing officialdom. And by signing at the bottom, on the marble floor, he thus forever connects, as if in a single inlay, his name to the ducal family, to its customs, and to the objects with which it is usually familiar: the music sheets and instruments, the tennis racket and the dog, the parrot, the clock, and the fabrics.

Inspiration for a medium-sized, partially-shaded, transitional backyard with stone landscaping in the spring.

A 17-minute video detailing the history and evolution of compositing with green screens, blue screens, and yellow screens. The latter of which has an advantage in its very specific wavelength used for compositing in technicolour film (it was extensively used by Disney of all places! Mary Poppins anyone?).
