Color

Motivation

As we get closer and closer to final lighting, we need to communicate, share and unify our color assumptions to get an consistent direction to the color across shots and scenes of the film Color choices will vary by act, so lets go into it on that level.

Act I

We start on a station that is slightly elevated above the 'real'. Not so far gone to be completely surreal, this station has elements of strange, both in color and physical representation. For instance, it is wide open to the outside, but nobody other than gilgamesh enters it, and having done so, it effectively shuts out the outside for the rest of the film. It is lit, and traversed by trains, however, no train ever stops in it, and it has an air of being unused, boarded up. This station represents a retreat of gilgamesh from the world to her own solipsism and can be seen as a reflection of her own mind. colors are cool, somber, reflecting her mood and her memory, with a preponderance of aqua tones and hints of water in the lighting. Loads of dramatic lighting, atmospheric effects are called for:
