In $lmmaking, color is used to set the tone of a scene

before any of the actors have even uttered a word.
Red is used to denote passion, danger or power.
Pink signi$es innocence, femininity and
beauty. Yellow is associated with joy, naivety and
insanity. Blue symbolizes isolation, passivity and
calmness.

StudioBinder has come up with an interesting

infographic that showcases the different color
schemes used by $lmmakers and the range of
emotions they evoke. Check it out below.
