Introduction to Color in Film Preliminary Exercise Black/White

     Black and white in film are more complex colors and they usually have more complex themes associated with them. These colors are usually used to highlight the end of a character's journey or a new beginning for them. In my two examples below we a see a character ending their story and another's story just beginning. These colors are necessary to highlight on a character's journey throughout film. Without these colors it would be hard to highlight on a new beginning and end.

These colors were the most interesting to me while analyzing them. I am able to tell very clearly when a character's story just begins and when it ends because of black and white. These colors are associated with darker and complex themes. Me not working with anyone on this exercise allowed me to gain all understanding of what these colors meant. These colors are necessary in film because of the growth highlighted with these colors.
