Gradients

This is a shot from the film 'I Spit On Your Grave' i think the gradient used in this clip is very effective. The saturation has been removed which gives a element of purity, that is effective in this clip as the characters are naked which also adds to the pure element, the pale fleshy colours use alsoo imply that the characters may be emotionless.

The blue gradient gives the film 'Shutter Island' as glum and gloomy felling, the idea of the two protagonists travelling to a mental institute shows that the film may not have a happy thrill. Blue is a melancholy colour which represents resent and sadness. 

This is a clip from the Oscar nominated film Django Unchained the gradient that is used in this film is one that has a high contrast. THe film uses bright sun light and the yellow overlay. The saturation has increases this allows for more brightly and colourful film this is in contrast with the subject matter of fighting slavery.
