Color Series for Men

There are a lot of these color boards floating around the web these days, however, most of them pull hues from a slightly more feminine image base. Here are some counterparts, or as Blaine Edwards and Antoine Merriweather would propose “Men on Colors” – Colors from a male point of view.

Chicago in Fog

Camped out in the hospital for a few days after my wife gave birth to our son. These fogs move through Chicago all the time but I had a great view from my window sill bed. The forefront building is Water Tower Place with the Hancock Tower angling behind. Naturally desaturated images always move to the top of my list.

Film Chroma: Tron Legacy

I had a quick idea yesterday to see what a movie would look like simplified down to its color palette. What if anything can you tell of a film’s mood, pace or story this way? I mocked up Tron Legacy, taking a film grab every minute and averaging each scene down to just one color. Admittedly you do lose quite a bit this way, where a high contrast black and white scene becomes gray. I’ll rework a version sampling each scene down to 4 or 6 colors to accommodate that. The color blocks start top left with the beginning of the movie and move to the right, then restarting down a row and moving right again. I’ll try another film when I get a few free moments to see how they compare.

Each scene sampled to 4 colors
