Ways SpiderVerse utilizes color for storytelling

Discover how 'Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse' color design was used to tell a story. Join me as we explore how the creative team used colours to enhance storytelling and establish characters personalities. Through this in-depth exploration, we'll first review the basics of colour theory and how colour plays a pivotal role in establishing mood, differentiating characters and their environments in Into the SpiderVerse.
Join us for this mini series focusing on the amazing SpiderVerse films. This is the first episode, subscribe to not miss any future videos.
Miles, Gwen, Peter, Peter B, Spider Pig, Spider man Noir, Peni Parker and SPDR all have some interesting colour choices along with their novel illustration styles. Same goes for Prowler, Tombstone, Kingpin, Doc Ock, Scropion and Green Goblin.
Just a note from me in that this was researched, written and recorded before Across the Spiderverse was released outside of cinemas
In order to make this video I watched the first film many times, bought the artbook, watched hours of interviews and stalked a bunch of artists who worked on this movie. I hope you get something out of this!

This video took 150 hours to make, I hope it does a small service to the people who made this film 🙇🏽‍♂️

[@meltedbionics]

genuinely one of the most underrated videos I’ve ever seen. Thank you for making this

[@scrolldragon205]

This is literally the best color analysis video I've ever seen

[@Nanni_444-vf2tq]

Omg so good, a really strong analysis of Spider-verse and colour theory in general! I loved the movies, you spotted so many things I haven’t whilst watching them. Thanks for the video 👏🏼!!

[@Kuhol.12]

I have done multiple studies on the art in Spider-Verse and watched alot of the references made in this video, and i think this was a really good recap. I'm a little sad I went hunting on my own when I could've just watched this, Great research :D

[@7thVision]

Thank you very much! I do think personal investigations do teach you more than watching one video but glad you still found this helpful!

[@lami444]

This deserves more views

[@GorillaEnjoyer]

If you pay attention to the colour palette Sam Raimi used for Bonesaw, you can see that he’s ready

[@7thVision]

He was so ready even spidersense wasn’t

[@BergOljelund]

Can’t wait for part 2

[@7thVision]

Thanks man, hopefully it won’t disappoint!

[@albert82336]

This is art

[@lami444]

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Hope part 2 is coming soon!

[@smooshiie3025]

very good analysis, thank you for your work (i'm using your video for a school work)

[@7thVision]

Nice one, I hope this helps with your work!

[@mulakklecrabe]

only 73 subs?

[@7thVision]

Dunno what to tell you man, guess I’m still within the early days still but hope you enjoyed the video

[@mulakklecrabe]

@@7thVision bro it was awesome you're way too underrated
