in the kitchen scenes lightning is used effectively to
enhance the story and shows the theme 'looks can 
be decieving ? In the real world kitchen a natural cold
light comes through the rainy window which creates an 
atmosphere of boredom, sadness and loneliness. the director 
did this to show us that coraline doesn't like it here and is unhappy.
juxtaposed to this is the kitchen in the other world. it is lit by a warm, orange 
artical light that makes the space feel warm,welcoming and safe.
selick used this to show that coraline is happy and feels at home 
in the other world. this helps show the theme 'looks can be decieving 'because 
coraline feels safe but by the end of the film we will discover that the other world 
is a perfect trap designed to catch coraline.
