Colour

I found it really interesting how colour can be interpreted with an emotive response and even sounds.
Colour can be used to express a given atmosphere. For example Blue can often be associated with sadness and despair where as a bright and bold colour like Red can be associated with 'vibrant' feelings like passion, anger, romance, and can scientifically make a persons mouth water at the sight of the colour.

In film, the colours aqua and orange are used together because they contrast and compliment each other so beautifully. Not only is it used on the movie cover, but some of the scenes; like sunset and opaque fore ground. It helps give the feel that something is offsetting, not right or doesn't quite match up. The colours in contrast excite the viewer by the aura of difference and that makes them curious about what actually goes on in the film.
