RED DEMONS AND YELLOW PSYCHICS: COLOR ASSOCIATIONS AND THEIR ROLE IN SPN’S VISUAL LANGUAGE PART I

[bowtrunckle]

More color crazy SPN meta.  OMG.  Someone.  Stop.  Me.

Light and color are the most basic and powerful elements in visual storytelling. Television shows employ certain lighting techniques and/or repeat specific color combinations to create a signature style that eases viewers into a visual comfort zone. Light and color also contribute to the mood

You're wearing yellow?! Oo. Have you had any naughty, evil-ish thoughts lately? Hmm, how's that fic of yours coming along, eh? *grins* I swear, once it's finished I will read it. See, I have this thing about not reading a multi-chapter fic until it's completely posted because I get impatient with cliff-hangers and I worry that the author will never finish it (erm ... which I have a horrible tendency to do *hides*) and then what? I'll be left all dangly. :(

*wantses the DVDs NOW*
*wantses the 3rd Season*

I'm so with you! What day is it ... Sept 11 yet? *still curses Best Buy* Have you seen the new S3 Promo!? No spoilers whatsoever.

But you forgot about baby!Sam's eyes flashing yellow in the 'flashback' in All Hell Breaks Loose, Part 1 (2x21).

Heh. That's reserved for Part II. :) Sammy, Sammy what are we going to do with you and your demon blood? *cackles* Spin crazy metas, that's what!

So...what do you have on blue? ;)

Lowers voice and whispers, "lots of craziness." We should work on that meta once I get back at the end of September (yes, another contract, this time in northern British Columbia ... but I'm going to Vancouver this weekend so I'll keep my eyes peeled for a black Impala *grins*). I will try to get my thoughts into some sort of coherent order in the meantime and zip you an e-mail. :) And please do the same if you have any great revelations. I'll have internet access where I'm going so I'll be around here and there.

I'm so glad you found this interesting. :)

Nah, just the normal hurt/angst/mess up the Winchesters for good... :)
I understand your worry about WIPs, because I, sort of, share it. And that's why I've also tried to avoid plotbunnies/wolves/dragon hatchlings that have even the slightest whiff of 'multi-chapter' about them. Because I know that if I loose the red thread with Precipice, I may never find it again.
Luckily, seems like the story's slowly approaching an end... :)

Thank You for that link! Oh, if all Supernatural's promos/teasers/trailers would be so friendly for us spoiler-phobes... which sort of defeats their purpose, though.
And I do not think there's a curious detail in that voice over. I do not! *is hopeless*

If the yellow-eyes are in the Sam-meta... okay, I'll forgive you. :)

My metamare's been on a hiatus on its own, apparently. But I should get that addendum on the War out before the Third Season begins, and work on a few other metas... Mary and Blue are on hold, though. Though McG's eyes are strikingly blue... And there are the tasty fic-ideas that I want to write, damn it.
So much to do, so little time to do it all. *sigh*

I hope you can enjoy your Vancouver-trip. Just keep your eyes open for a Sasquatch and his slightly stockier companion... ;)

*hugs*

Hold onto it with both hands because from my experience, once it's dropped it's difficult to find. Working up the momentum to get back into a story is a painful process.

And I do not think there's a curious detail in that voice over. I do not! *is hopeless*

Oo, really? *raises eyebrow and grins* Are you in a sharing mood?

But I should get that addendum on the War out before the Third Season begins, and work on a few other metas...

Yes you should. Definitely. Ah, not that you're not already writing a million other metas and fics or anything. ;) Productive people like you make me wish I had a "faster" button plugged into my brain.

Mary and Blue are on hold, though.

Is this the religious-slanted Mary Mother of Sam meta I've been waiting for? And darn that blue/red/yellow meta for being overly difficult. But on a positive note, I finally got my hands on the S3 DVDs (don't those boys look pretty on a large, non-computer screen?)! It's finally time to get down to business on S2. *rolls up sleeves*

That voice-over just sounds like it's not a direct quote, but a combination of two. There's this...hitch? that bothers me betwixt "evil" and "raise"...
See? This is why I can't let myself watch/listen to anything even distantly spoilerious...;)

Yes, it's the Mary/Mary-meta. Which isn't going anywhere, at the moment, and I dread await eagerly what S3 brings about...

Oh, goody! You've got the DVDs! Go forth and elaborate! *rubs hands excitedly*
