According to Garrison, colour can be a dominant element of images and the most powerful force of colour is its emotional impact.
Red = passion and romance or violence and anger.
Yellow = joy and intelligence or criticism and being scared.
Blue = peace and harmony or fear and depression.
Orange = confidence and energy or slowness and pain (fire)
Purple = royalty and religious or bruised and beaten. Domestic Violence.
Green = growth and soothing or envy and greed.
Black = strong and committed or evil and death.
White = purity and goodness or cold and distant.
Iler (2007, p.3) states that colours have cultural significance.
Therefore we have to consider about colours carefully.
Remember to keep the colour of cultural and family history in mind
when we chose.
Black and white colours add a classy touch and historical feel to a picture (JCWcn.com, 2008).
According to Academon, the colour PURPLE is the symbolic colour for domestic violence.
In sums up, I am considering to use the black, white and purple as the main colour in our film.
