why are colours so important? colours help evoke emotions of the scene and simplify the story a little and also can give us an understanding of the several moods and colours schemes can be very important while c wanting to create something that looks aesthetically well balanced. the colour wheel is great in showing so.

there are complementary colours who are opposites on the colour wheel and go well along with each other.

analogous colours that are colours right next to each other and shades of those colours on the colour wheel.

then there are triadic colours that colours at the end of a supposed equilateral triangle was kept in the middle of the colour wheel.

monochromatic colours that are as simple as shades of the same colour...

and lastly, there are warm and cool colours, being warm and cool colours, as there is no better way to describe them

colours help appeal the product to the audience and helps it to be pleasing to the eye of the viewers making a much more hunger impact than we even realise. for our opening sequence and since the genre is psychological thriller we decided to stick with the codes and conventions of this genre and have a dark cool colour palette that includes dark shades that includes darker shades of colours, low lighting, with it not having a single tint of yellow or any kind of warm colour. you can even add filters and colour grade while editing but we will try not to that as we want to keep it as realistic and natural as possible and will manipulate with the lighting.
we have tried to implement so in our opening sequence and would be seen in our final product.
