CRAFTWORKS: the use of color to convey emotion

In “Color Psychology” by Audiovisual media student Lilly Mtz-Seara, popular American film clips demonstrate the use of cultural conceptions of color to convey emotion in film. Watch the video here:

How closely do adult filmmakers follow this psychology? Pay attention to the colors Shine Louise Houston chooses to paint her set walls and the sheets she uses to dress the bed for her CrashPad Series.

The colors compliment the skin tones of the performers and help to convey erotic feelings such as passion (red), playfulness (pink), and intimacy (purple).
