Color coordination

<< < (4/4)

TJ:
Unless a person involved with the movie has put in writing that a particular color coordination agenda was actually used with the movie, all we can do is discuss our own theories about it.

If I still lived in North Hollywood, CA, I might ask someone whom I know would be in show business to find out for me. I did have actor friends in LA and even knew some guys who were executives in Movie Studios.

Which IS the joy and interest in any piece of art.  Thankfully, there are still writers, directors and artists that don't find it necessary to spell out everything & treat their audience as unintelligent and/or unimaginative.

TJ:
I am actually a professionally trained artist: that's why I was qualified to teach art classes in public schools.

In my art works, I have made realistic pictures of various types were everything as based on what I actually saw and people who had seen the same thing would know that it was a very close representation. I have created abstract art in which one or more things might be recognized in the picture but, those things were stylized representations of the real thing and did not even look like the real thing.

I have created non-objective art works, which people mistakenly call "abstract art," and there were just things I was playing around with for the fun of it or had a purpose as a gift for a friend. There were no real things in the non-object works and I just enjoyed making them. Sometimes, I might use some kind of color coordination and/or light vs. dark in those works which were related to what I had learned in color theory and design classes.

I have worked on stage play sets where everything had a special purpose and place because the script required it.

But, when I designed the stage sets for the Junior Class Play I directed when I was full-time teacher in the early 1970s, I made some modifications in some of what was suggested or written in the director's script for the play. The stage was not a full-sized one and some of the set backgrounds needed to look like there was depth to them. The name of that particular production was "Get Smart" and it was actually written by the same people who created the TV comedy series of the same name.

And in the early 1990s, I attended a taping of "Diff'rent Strokes" at Universal Studios Hollywood and I also saw how some of the rooms which appeared to be full size rooms on the TV screen were actually small set sections, too.
