Hello!

This is @ohdrey89 & welcome to my side blog!

I’ve been an avid movie watcher since my wee beginnings & while others notice cinematography or soundtrack (my first favorite thing about a movie), I am eternally fascinated by the palette of a film. How often ever so subtly or even with unsubtle broad strokes a director or set designer or costume designer will pay attention to color and let color tell the story.

Here you will find my palettes of screen caps from film, tv shows and even costumes. A lot of these colors will be affected by lighting or camera angles so please be kind if the colors aren’t 100% accurate to the colors of the fabrics or backgrounds used. The saturation of Shades and Tints of Hues are sometimes determined by the lighting.

Please feel free to use these palettes as source materials for your own creative endeavors. I don’t need even the credit, color is for everyone to enjoy.

What originally inspired this was my love of a blue dress with a red band Kirsten Dunst wears as Marie Antoinette. (link) I wanted the colors matched for the bathroom in my home when I remodel the bathroom. Once I started making the collages of palettes I couldn’t stop. There are now so many that I felt it necessary to post them somewhere.

Please feel free to like, comment, & reblog!

Requests are always appreciated and my ask box is open! Please feel free to request movies you like or want to see more of, I am taking requests or submissions!

Rules for submitting:

1: If you’re going to submit anonymously, please do not send hate. This is a side blog & I have no problem turning submissions off.

2: Nudity is 100% acceptable but please do not send porn, these must be stills from traditional films. Porn is reserved for my main blog.

3: I have no restrictions on subject matter. Any genre of film or tv show is acceptable, but please if you are submitting a photo for a film outside of North America or the UK (and Ireland), please include at least the name of the film. I will have no idea of the name of the film otherwise.

4: If you submit a photo and do not want to be credited for the photo please state so because otherwise if there is a username attached to the request, I will credit the username with the submission.

Thank you very much & hope you have a great day!

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"I — Failed — John — Keats! I failed him, I failed him, I failed him! I did not know till now how tightly he wound himself around my heart."

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"There is a holiness to the heart's affection. Know you nothing of that?"

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"Forlorn! the very word is like a bell / To toll me back from thee to my sole self! / Adieu! the fancy cannot cheat so well / As she is fam'd to do, deceiving elf. / Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades / Past the near meadows, over the still stream, / Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep / In the next valley-glades: / Was it a vision, or a waking dream? / Fled is that music: - Do I wake or sleep?"

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art - / Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night / And watching, with eternal lids apart, / Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite, / The moving waters at their priestlike task / Of pure ablution round earth's human shores, / Or gazing on the new soft-fallen masque / Of snow upon the mountains and the moors - / No - yet still stedfast, still unchangeable / Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast, / To feel for ever its soft swell and fall, / Awake for ever in a sweet unrest, / Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath, / And so live ever - or else swoon to death."

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"Fanny Brawne walked the Heath for many years, often far into the night. She never forgot John Keats or removed his ring. / Keats died at twenty five, believing himself a failure. Today he is recognised as one of the greatest of the Romantic Poets."

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"If poetry does not come as naturally as leaves to a tree, then it had better not come at all."

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"I still don't know how to work out a poem." "A poem needs understanding through the senses. The point of diving in a lake is not immediately to swim to the shore but to be in the lake, to luxuriate in the sensation of water. You do not work the lake out, it is a experience beyond thought. Poetry soothes and emboldens the soul to accept a mystery." "I love mystery."

[prismaticxchromatics]

Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion

"I had such a dream last night. I was floating above the trees with my lips connected to... to those of a beautiful figure, for what seemed like an age. Flowery treetops sprung up beneath us and we, um... rested on them with the lightness of a cloud." "Who was the figure?" "I must have had my eyes closed because I can't remember." "And yet you remember the treetops." "Not so well as I remember the lips." "Whose lips? Were they my lips?"

"Solo act?" "Yeah, now." "Now? Used to, what, work with the cat? Every time you play a C major, he'd puke a hair ball?" "I used to have a partner." "What happened?" "He threw himself off the George Washington Bridge." "Well, shit, I don't blame him. I couldn't take it either, having to play 'Jimmy Cracked Corn' every night. Oh, pardon me for saying so, that's pretty fucking stupid, isn't it? George Washington Bridge? You throw yourself off the Brooklyn Bridge, traditionally. George Washington Bridge? Who does that? What was he, a dumbbell?" "Not really."

"Hey, look… I'm really happy for the gig but who… who wrote this?"
