Jonze's long-time director of photography, Lance Acord, was not available to work on the movie. In his place, Jonze hired Hoyte Van Hoytema. [25] In discussing the film's look, Jonze told Van Hoytema that he wanted to avoid a dystopian look, instead the two decided on a style that Van Hoytema termed "kind of a hybrid between being a little bit conceptual and being very theoretical", [25] Van Hoytema took particular inspiration from Japanese photographer Rinko Kawauchi. [25] In keeping with the film's theme, Van Hoytema sought to eliminate the color blue as much as possible, feeling it was too well associated with the sci-fi genre. [25] He also felt that by eliminating the color it would give the rest of the colors "a specific identity". [25] Filming [ edit ] Hemingway once said, ''Write long and hard about what hurts,'' but what if nothing's hurting? What I feel inside is both bedraggled and empty. [...] Patience is something that I'm working on. And as I tap the end of my pen on the corners of my temples, I remind myself that it's okay if I don't have the right words right now -or that I'm not Hemingway.''

I couldn't find a flow in them, reading them out loud made me stumble and stutter. What a found instead were themes I thought of as very self-indulgent.

There's a lot of suffering in here, she writes about self-doubt and fighting with self-hatred, she romanticises past relationships and daydreams about new ones.
