Colour proportion in film

I was watching the "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" has been obsessed with that just played a mermaid. I later checked her information, Her name is Gemma Ward. But no other pictures in the movie is so stunning. I take the thanks to the film's color.

In the movie, her alongside the boat in the sea midstream.Because of the relationship of the light, to see on the screen that the partial upper skin is pale yellow.Especially dazzling in dark blue large sea.Few yellow skin part in the lens, is a sea of blue tone.It is because of the proportion of the quarter, the focus of the audience focus on the role.

Accounted for one-third of the proportion in this picture yellow skin.Also the same principle.But  a quarter of yellow is better.

 

 

Quarter of yellow, the fifth red roses, there is a large area of Rose White.The site is all the same warm color photography bland.

Different feeling of different proportion colour

Each color brings the visual emotions are different.
Red gives a festive feeling of passion, violence, flirtatious. Global warning signs.
Yellow is a bright color, yellow, and orange is the main color in autumn, can arouse strong feelings. Psychology that the yellow dominated joy.
Blue is the color of the sky. Water surface mapping skylight, usually blue. Blue covered with our planet. From space, the Earth is a blue planet.
The blue color is humble, and to convey the feelings of quiet and passive.

 

So the proportion of the main tone of the picture on the picture effect plays a decisive role.
