A long-limbed woman with a grey ponytail in acid-wash jeans adjusts a glowing synthesizer in a neon-lit 1980s arcade, framed by film sprocket holes.

An arcade technician in acid-wash jeans tunes a chrome synthesizer beneath a canopy of electric magenta and cyan tubes. Captured on Fuji 8511 stock with a diffused Zeiss lens, the frame is awash in dramatic 1980s neon light and heavy grain. Soft red halation bleeds from every glowing fixture, framed by the dark border and sprocket holes of the raw film strip.
