In the film industry, we see all different types of films and movies, but there’s always guidelines on what needs to be followed by stereotypes that have been built by society. In the film “The Bronze Screen” it gives us a better understanding on how the system is set up for film making but especially for Latinos in the film industry, Latinos are seen as a minority group who don’t have a lot of changes on making into the big screen, the film explains how Latinos are put in movies to fill the stereotypes that have been made by society but to be specific by the white people.

White balance – it adjusts the colours to make the image more natural and accurate. It corrects the colours in the pictures so they have a more realistic colour background.

The image effectively uses the strong contrast between light and dark lighting, a technique that is often used to heighten drama or tension around the subject.

The creation of propaganda films and posters required a small amount of people to produce, but was still a key part in the grand scheme of propaganda. The Nazis had a Film Academy in which they taught new recruits how to make films and distributed the films that the experts made on their own. These films discretely captured the thoughts of Jews in the minds of Nazis, filling them with stereotypes and threats to the community. The film “The Blue Light” is a film featuring a character that depicted a Jewish woman who found herself near a cave filled with tantalizing, glowing crystals. As she approached the cave, she slipped on a cliff and fell to her death. Later, an entire village of people learned of this cave of riches. Instinctively, they took up arms to carry out an expedition on a potential fortune. Instead, the whole village plummeted to its death. These characters were depictions of greed, a stereotypical characteristic of the Jewish people. These offensive displays were part of the propaganda that persuaded France and Great Britain into declaring war to begin World War II.

Caravaggio made lightness and darkness of color within this painting by adding value. The way he uses value is by making the background black and adding colors to the front of the painting.

uses warm tone shades that are appealing/attractive to the eye and distinctive from one another.

The black formula is what makes the white paint into "Optic White", a much better, whiter, white.  The formula, perhaps, represents the behind the scenes blacks that worked for the whites so that society persisted as it did in that time period.  This idea will be touched upon once again later on in this series of scenes.

Though this plot-reinforcing setting motif advantageously simplifies the film, the use of black and white is ineffective to simplifying the film. Whedon shot in black and white due to the low budget, therefore the choice lacks meaning and leaves the audience searching for the significance. Also, it causes characters to fall back flatly into the background. The grayscale would work better if the tones of people were more separate from the tones of the backgrounds; the film looks bleached-out and overexposed without the contrast of color. The grayscale also lacked meaning and made the film feel more shallow, where the grayscale could have been used in a way to create depth. While this does eliminate part of the distracting quality of backgrounds

The film focuses on Ben Braddock as he tries to figure out what do with his life, which is further complicated by an unfortunate love triangle involving Ben and two women who happen to be mother and daughter. The opening scenes of the film serve to introduce the audience to Ben and the hopelessness, emptiness, and angst that he feels as he struggles to find his path in life.

Monochrome film photography allows one to learn and express emotions in their art differently. Great examples of this are the movie from 40s. They depicted all the emotions-death, love, and happiness with shades. Color usually makes this process very easy. Another use of monochrome is for shooting nudes. Eliminating color removes the smutty component from the picture and allows one to appreciate the naked body as piece of art. One of the biggest reasons for the popularity of black and white photography is its timeless nature. Black and white is still considered a piece from photographic past as it adds a timeless quality to the picture.
