Treatment - Visual Style

Gritty, with high contrast between highlights and shadows, with blue-green tones, as blue and green are commonly associated with the sci-fi genre, and gritty visuals are associated with action films.


12 Monkeys (sci-fi, action) - very dim lighting, with high contrast between light and dark, as well as the time machine lit completely in blue, which helps to connote the sci-fi genre.

Star Trek (sci-fi) - once again, prominent blue tones, especially within the spaceship itself. However, it has lots of high key lighting, which isn’t a common feature of gritty action films.

Alien (sci-fi) - high contrast between shadows and highlights, as well as blue being a dominant colour

Blade Runner (sci-fi, thriller) - high contrast between shadows and highlights, as well as blue being a dominant colour
