Chromatic Cinema
Author: Richard Misek
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1444332392
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Chromatic Cinema Color permeates film and its history, but study of its contribution to film has so far been fragmentary. Chromatic Cinema provides the first wide-ranging historical overview of screen color, exploring the changing uses and meanings of color in moving images, from hand painting in early skirt dance films to current trends in digital color manipulation. In this richly illustrated study, Richard Misek offers both a history and a theory of screen color. He argues that cinematic color emerged from, defined itself in response to, and has evolved in symbiosis with black and white. Exploring the technological, cultural, economic, and artistic factors that have defined this evolving symbiosis, Misek provides an in-depth yet accessible account of color’s spread through, and ultimate effacement of, black-and-white cinema.

Color Mania
Author: Barbara Flückiger
Publisher:
ISBN: 9783037786079
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Since the earliest days of cinema, fi lm has been a colorful medium and art form. More than 230 film color processes have been devised in the course of fi lm history, often in close connection with photography. In this regard, both media institutionalized numerous techniques such as hand and stencil coloring as well as printing and halftone processes. Apart from these fundamental connections in terms of the technology of color processes, fi lm and photography also share and exchange color attributions and aesthetics.0This publication highlights material aspects of color in photography and fi lm, while also investigating the relationship of historical fi lm colors and present-day photography. Works of contemporary photographers and artists who reflect on technological and culture-theoretical aspects of the material of color underline these relations. Thematic clusters focus on aesthetic and technological parallels, including fashion and identity, abstraction and experiment, politics, exoticism, and travel.0Color Mania contains a general introduction to color in film and photography (technique, materiality, aesthetics) as well as a series of short essays that take a closer look at specific aspects. An extensive image section illustrates the texts and color systems and continues the aesthetic experience of the various processes and objects in book form.00Exhibition: Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland (07.09. - 24.11.2019).

Color and the Moving Image
Author: Simon Brown
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136307893
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This new AFI Film Reader is the first comprehensive collection of original essays on the use of color in film. Contributors from diverse film studies backgrounds consider the importance of color throughout the history of the medium, assessing not only the theoretical implications of color on the screen, but also the ways in which developments in cinematographic technologies transformed the aesthetics of color and the nature of film archiving and restoration. Color and the Moving Image includes new writing on key directors whose work is already associated with color—such as Hitchcock, Jarman and Sirk—as well as others whose use of color has not yet been explored in such detail—including Eric Rohmer and the Coen Brothers. This volume is an excellent resource for a variety of film studies courses and the global film archiving community at large.
