WES ANDERSON COLOUR SCHEME
As a group we have taken inspiration from the extremely creative film-maker 'Wes Anderson'.
A brief summary to Wes - IMDB
Anderson attended the University of Texas in Austin, where he majored in philosophy. It was there that he met Owen Wilson. They became friends and began making short films, some of which aired on a local cable-access station. One of their shorts was Bottle Rocket (1994), which starred Owen and his brother Luke Wilson. The short was screened at the Sundance Film Festival, where it was successfully received, so much so that they received funding to make a feature-length version. Bottle Rocket (1996) was not a commercial hit, but it gained a cult audience and high-profile fans, which included Martin Scorsese.
In particular we have taken a massive liking to the colour palette used in all his films. He tends to stick to plain earthy colours that give his films a grainy quality which look superb in my opinion.
We have decided to follow a deep red/brown and orange colour scheme to give the video a classic and authentic look. These colour schemes will stay constant through-out.
A particular film of Wes' that we would like to base our colour scheme and style on is 'Library of Plays' this style (as shown below) uses the red/brown colours we are going to use for the set of our video.
Ideas for wallpaper. We will use the school's money to fund this: http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/holden-clara-wallpaper---red-208495
The music video 'Out of the Game' by artist Rufus Wainwright, represents the exact colour themes we had in mind for our video, and just the general indie feel.
