Workshop 3: How is colour used to create the two worlds

A. Real world study
colour dark,grey ,blue,green
lighting: natural light
feelings = sad,lonely,depressed,miserable,
dusty,old,dirty,
director = gives us a sense about how Coraline feels-board,sad
= shows that the dad is overworked

B. The other world study
colours = orange,artificial orange,red
lighting = warm, artificial light
feelings = happy,bright,exciting,relaxed,clean,tidy
director =  makes is look like the kind of place Coraline would like to live in
= shows the other father is active and awake. This father has time to talk to Coraline.

Statement = Example = Explain audience feels = Explain director did to show = Explain how it works with something else = your link -question -theme - another moment in the story

colour is important in creating the two worlds and showing the theme 'looks can be deceiving'! This has shown when comparing the studys in the real and other worlds.The real world study is dull,dowdy and cold with a grey and blue colour palette. This makes the audience feel like the space is miserable and unpleasant to be in. The director did this to show that Coraline is upset that her father is to busy to spend time with her. Juxtaposed to this is the study in the other world. Artificial oranges  and reds makes the other study feel warm, welcoming and enticing. Selick does this to show the audience that this the kind of world Coraline would like to live in. colour is used to make the other world feel like a safe place but it is actually a trap to lure in Coraline and steal her soul.

theme =
big ideas = looks can be deceiving = courage and bravery 
Juxtaposed = the complete opposites
