How does the use of color in Written on the Wind express the emotions, situations, and/or relationships of the characters? (Write no more than 500 words.)
These are the professor’s words, I will also attach everything else you might need.
Common conventions when writing about film:
When mentioning a scene, indicate in parentheses the time code for the start of the scene or moment under discussion. For example, “When we first see Lucy in the office (3:20), she is wearing a gray blouse and skirt.” Please note that reference to a time code is NOT a substitute for accurate, detailed, and vivid description.
Italicize or underline film titlesno quotation marks or bold.
Refer to characters by the characters name, not the actors name (see above for a list).
Use the literary present tense when describing events in the fictional world: Literary works, paintings, films, and other artistic creations are assumed to exist in an eternal present. Therefore, when you write about writers or artists as they express themselves in their work, use the present tense. Vanderbilt Writing Studio. (For more information on the literary present tense, see this helpful guide.)
Example of the literary present: In a scene early in the film, Lucy and Mitch meet Kyle at a restaurant, where Kyle quickly acquaints himself with Lucy.
