teal & orange.xls

i guess the explanations were on another movie thread

warm (white person) flesh has an orangey tone, the opposing color on the wheel from there is teal. it makes faces pop out of the background.

Least it's not green and lavender, I guess.

this thread is not to document those colors occurring au naturel or even in the production design of a given shot, but the digital manipulation to amp it up and flatten it out

deep breaths guys

i think production design should count here

RMDE at the people who think this is somehow normal, natural, or excusable.

Yes it's a contrast in color temperature. The problem is that of course it's not the only possible contrast in color temperature to use. And more importantly, a contrast in color temperature is not always desirable! Nor is it the only means of visual contrast.

Contrast in luminosity is far more important. There can also be contrast between different hues of a similar color temperature. And there are of course visual contrasts in size and texture, moving objects vs. static objects, and things that are in or out of focus. Out of all of the ways to get contrast and direct the viewer's attention within a moving picture, a contrast in color temperature is by far the least important, and least interesting.

Imagine a scene that takes place in the desert. It's all shades of dusty brown and beige, there's a rusted old mining equipment in the tumbleweeds, and the sky has brownish smoggy golden hour glow. Then in the midst of that there's a brand new shiny red car that stands out. Everything in the scene could be very close together in hue and yet there could still be an extreme contrast to the image. And the reddish hues would help reinforce a feeling of oppressive heat. But a contemporary production designer would probably use a teal car instead. The contrast would be greater but would that be necessary? How would that actually improve the scene?

um. I'm not sure where you're getting teal and orange here.

Yeah. Neither do I, now that I look at it.

Ever notice how so many moview have green & brown?

yes. teal and orange is very specifically about a digital color grading trend, it's not about you suddenly noticing that people have been mixing hot and cold colors for centuries!

The New Yorker piece was great, but there are so many recreated scenes in that trailer that I don't know if it's even a documentary

It's been in a few arthouse features as well.

Once Upon a Time in Anatolia was amazing, but I grew tired with the imagery in Headless Woman. Otherwise it's quite good, though.

Okay, I'll try again:

the historical data is pretty uneven, the data for 1920 is from a single movie poster

Silver not really the predominant colour here. Nice touch with the orange knees.
