Colour and their meanings in Media

Colour plays a crucial part of the Mise-en-scene aspects of film. Colour is very important in that it symbolises different meanings such as; Black - (Death/Power) or White - Innocence and new beginnings

Colours and their representation

This is important because if the colour isn't nailed in film it can look very unusual and give the viewing audience integrated ideas on the character. Say if you took a murderous villain, you'd expect the director or costume designer to dress them in dark dull colours to represent bad feelings like death etc. Not in bright yellow or green to represent happiness or cowardice.

As a team, me and Liam can use this chart to dress our character accordingly so that he fits the gloomy drama setting, whilst maintaining a stereotype of 'the typical skater.'
