Why black and white film?






Why I mention about a black and white film is that I read a book called Chanwook Park’s Montage which is a Korean book about a Korean film director ‘Park Chanwook’. This is because he is my favourite director. He says that he has loved the movies of Seijun Suzuki who is a Japanese film director. In one of his films, there are so many strong colours’ contrast like a yellow wall, white suit, red shoes, and blue clothes villain. Somehow, that made him a crazy and genius film director.

After I read that, I realised that I like a strong colour and image, then, why don’t I try to make some strong images. Also, my film will be less than 5 minutes. So, I need to use some strong images in order to make a longer impression.

Therefore, I’m thinking about my movie make a black and white film. This is because my last scene will be a main actor with full of bloody so that if I make that a black and white film and colour film for the last scene, I could emphasize the last scene with a contrast between black and white colour and red colour.
