Today we have a twofer, mostly due to my own indecision during the design process. I ended up liking both variations of color: day and night. I thought it worked well with many of the film's themes, both visually and thematically: life and death, light and dark, humans and nature, love and hate. Princess Mononoke is a film about the negative impact humans have on nature in their pursuit of its precious resources. The film's protagonist, Ashitaka, acts as a mediator between the animal gods of the forest and the human settlement trying to find a peaceful solution that doesn't end in all out war.
