Notes on specific colours - today is red

Here is an excerpt from my notes on colours:


Red

·      Bright red visually says POWER.
·      Red can make things appear to move faster (think the Flash, also red cars are given more speeding tickets)
·      Red on a woman is perceived as sexy, sometimes even as slutty. Red on a man is perceived as heroic
·      Aggression, lust, anxiety – no colour affects people so physically
·      You can colour behind someone to reflect their emotion – when Romeo first sees Juliet there is an intense red behind him
·      When two people are not talking about sex, but are clearly interested in each other, have them talking about business but put red everywhere in the scene
·      In the presence of darkness (black) it can activate anxiety. Think of the devil.
