Felix¨s Movie Magic


During class last Wednesday, we saw 4 clips of the movies Harry Potter, Sin City, Avatar and Hero. Then we watch the clips, we selected 2 clips and we made two mosaics about the movies with colored paper.

I choose a scene from the movie Sin City. First, there is a woman standing on a balcony of a dark city. It is night time and the whole scene is in black and white. The only color that stands out from the scene is the red color of her dress and her lips. Then a man approaches her and offers a cigarette. She takes the cigarette and starts smoking. He tells her he has been following her because she is very beautiful and he likes her eyes. Her eyes immediately highlighted in green. They approach each other and began kissing in the rain. Finally, he shoots her and she dies.

Below you can see a picture of my mosaic, I tried to represent the colors, darkness and cold of the night in the city. I also tried to capture the scene where she highlights a red color of the dress and her lips. Behind the balcony, you can see how I tried to represent with different tones of black and white the darkness of the city.


I choose a scene from the movie Harry Potter. In this scene you can see Harry Potter representing his school (Gryffindor) in a competition of Quidditch. In that scene harry potter is flying on a broom. His outfit is red and yellow, these are the colors that represent his school team. The other team is represented by another boy, his outfit is green and white. They need to catch a flying ball. Harry Potter falls to the floor but then gets up and wins the competition.
I tried to represent this scene in the mosaic. The main color in the mosaic is green, you can see in my mosaic how I tried to illustrate the competition. Harry Potter´s outfit is red and yellow. His opponent´s outfit is green and white.


I hope you can imagine or remember the scenes of these movies through my mosaics. You can see how colors are very important factors in movies. With colors emotions can be expressed.
