Mun tu shudam tu mun shudi
mun tu shudam tu jaan shudi
Taakas na guyad baad azeen

I have become you, and you me,
I am the body, you soul;
So that no one can say hereafter,
That you are someone, and me someone else.

Don't forget the reason the U.S. is supporting Israel's genocide of Palestine - hell, 90% of the reason they ever get involved into something in the Middle East is for ulterior purposes regarding oil.

Casual analysis of graphic design and composition (ft. a bit of colour theory) since I’m a bit rusty and haven’t thought about them in a while
Hm? Some shots in Al-Haitham’s and Kaveh’s demos share a similar composition…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But it’s interesting that the more logical one uses informal symmetry in his character title card and the more emotional one uses formal symmetry… So many rectangles in Kaveh’s card (‘course it helps that hanzi characters are in squares)… It’s kinda surprising, but still it brings out the flow of the illustration well. (Of course, Chinese hanzi can be read horizontally or vertically, so they’ve more freedom in typography, but I bet they changed the graphic layout a bit for the English demo…)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
hah, yeah, I thought so. See how Kaveh’s cape can’t frame the center boxes anymore, and how there’s no space to the right of the synopsis in the upper right, and most of all how the two squares on the bottom left is now a quarter of the original size, leaving an empty space there (though if they rotated the words vertically it could fit into the rectangular space well).
Al-Haitham’s English title card isn’t bad, per se, but they could’ve put some shadow on the left side of the illustration so the text could stand out, and move the three green lines to the right side a bit more, so not everything is slightly to the left side when there’s no reason to. (The negative space on the two sides in the Chinese version is roughly the same size.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These two shots are both long shots that show the character’s full body, but Al-Haitham is in a slightly low angle, and Kaveh is eye-level with the “camera”
Tumblr media
This one’s another low angle full shot with Al-Haitham’s lower body, with a bunch of analogous colours. Also this one’s background uses formal symmetry again (even reflecting off the ground) while the placement of the characters are in informal symmetry (the large image of Al-Haitham balances out the small figures near the fountain)

For too long now my sanity is more supported by Persian movies than a good night's sleep. The cinematography of the Persian movies I have access to leaves me appreciative of the beauty of mundane reality more often than not. I'd love to attend the Iranian movie festival in Athens but since that's not possible I'll fangirl from inside my house. The treasure that is Ali Karaji will surely upload them afterwards, and I bet he has already translated them.

[📹 Scenes of Iranian missiles flying into Israeli cities tonight after Iran launches a major combined drone and missile strike and several targets in occupied Palestine, coinciding with rockets launched from southern Lebanon.]
🇮🇷⚔️🇮🇱 🚀🚀🚀 🚨
IRAN LAUNCHES MASSIVE COMBINED MISSILE AND DRONE STRIKES ON ISRAEL, US INTERCEPTS OVER 100 DRONES
Israeli media is reporting the arrival of dozens of missiles and drones fired from Iran, most of which they claim were intercepted.
According to the Zionist media, while no one was killed in the Iranian strikes, at least one young girl was wounded by shrapnel from an intercepted drone and was taken to a nearby hospital.
Already, Israeli officials are calling for counterstrikes, while the American media refuses to acknowledge the attack on the consulate building of the Iranian embassy that led to the current round of attacks.
The strikes represented the first time Iran has launched direct strikes on "Israel".
Occupation authorities claim that none of drones launched by the Iranians made it through the occupation's air defenses, some missiles succeeded in hitting their targets, while at least 20 missiles never made it to the borders of occupied Palestine.
According to one Israeli official, more than 200 drones and missiles were fired into the occupied Palestinian territories in all.
For now, while the Biden administration continues to reaffirm public support for the Israeli occupation, privately, the President has told Netanyahu he won't back an Israeli counter to the counterstrikes.
