maliciously manipulates him. Being in the vortex of this stupid play called "movie,"... ...what did my predecessor see? Let's have a talk with the animation director about characters. Where's Ohtsuka? Well, as always... Just as I've heard. He never answers the phone, he's always missing. Nobody has ever seen him. He's the "phantom animator." You know a lot. I've always wanted to get a glimpse of him with my own eyes. Idiot! That kind of attitude is why he treats us with no regard. If thatjerk keeps hiding in his apartment, kick the door open and-! It doesn't matter. We'll deal with the characters later. Let's decide about the colors first. Color Setting Aya Yasuda & Tsuya Yasuda The cinematic system has always demanded one thing as its ideology. Actuality. Reality. Hence, the audience in the past was reluctant to leave the reality... ...created by black-and-white films. The belief that color does not go well with realistic stories... ...led to the creation of many black-and-white masterpieces. Even after color films became common. From the close-up of a shining holy lady who receives divine favor... ...to the rain-soaked pavement of the warehouse district... ...where Ionely gangsters stand still. Everything that was sincere was filled with light and pictured the world... ...of the black to white scale. This is where truth resided. Gaudy color films simply contributed to the creation of vulgar... ...and nonsensical worlds with stimulating, spectacular, and glamorous landscapes. And? But the truth of the matter was exactly the opposite. Yes. Preceding the films of truth pictured in black and white... ...the real world was always full of colors. It was and is. Long before cinematography was born. The world people wanted to believe in was actually the fiction... ...given birth to by technology. In 1927, Herbert Kalmus successfully developed a negative film... ...that was light-sensitive to the three complementary colors to RBG: Cyan, magenta, and yellow. Hence, the curse of colors in the movies became a reality. The mask of truth was smeared with a violent-colored paint called Technicolor! The effort of making heavily made-up faces appear to have... ...the brilliance of natural skin only change the orderly idea into a real fake. It was nothing more than a fight without reward. Movies, having created a sacred kingdom, utterly ruined it... ...with the same methods and techniques and never looked back. On the other hand, as a public amusement first and foremost... ...the newly-born color films had to do more than just reproduce the colors... ...of the things that existed in the real world. Color movies had to be artificially processed as things... ...with their own strengths in order to contribute to the spectacle. An image that reproduced beautiful colors was nothing more than a... ...picturesque image that did not contribute in the slightest to the story. This made the movie a beloved child of the times. In order to make colors a part of a film's explanatory action... ...and to utilize it as a motivation in the drama... ...they had to wait for the cinematic vision... ...that was implicitly shared in that era, to mature. Should we repeat that? In order to have colors function as an important factor in a drama... ...a series of films had to exist first. That's what you're trying to say. Yes! Yellow ribbons and... Red shoes. Oh, the now-defunct Soviet Embassy's red flag! But the glory of the color films did not last long. As color became a normal part of filmmaking... ...the colors retrogressed from being the motivation, to the background... ...and the subtle coloration of Kodacolor put an end to the last myth of the colors! When the Black Hood changed to the White Hood, and then to the Purple Hood... ...the end of the series was already creeping up.
