LAUAN601-COLOUR SCRIPTS

PROFESSIONAL COLOUR SCRIPTS 

The Incredibles Pixar Colour Script

After mapping out my colour script; I started to research what professional colour scripts may look like. This gave me an idea of how I would approach my final piece. These professional colour scripts taught me that they are the most effective to a director when the colour scheme is clearly shown throughout the script. The basic block colours of the characters and the environment produce an image to the viewer  about how the script was approached with  a clear understanding of how the colour scheme is going to effect the characters, environment, and the action.  Each scene explains how the colour scheme changes, depending on the world in which the characters appear or live in. This is the most effective method as the viewer is less distracted by the aesthetic design of the shots and are able to fully focus on how the colour leads the audiences emotions through the use of colour and with the end results of,  showing the audience the tone of the scene based on either the time of day and how the subjects are placed throughout the world. 

I will start my colour script by a simple perspective drawing of each key scene, so I am able to map out the placement of the objects within each world. This produces the thought process around where the light and shadows will be throughout each scene. This is an important atmosphere technique to get right because this will allow the audience to understand the time of day as well as, the tone of the scene. With only using four major key points throughout the script, this means I can focus on producing and effective response to each world. As well as, clearly showing from the audience the how different the worlds are based on the colour themes chosen throughout the script as well as producing designs to make the audience question the coloured doors and what could be behind the doors based on the colour on front of them.
