do you think it's intentional or means something that the lights behind the pearls in the trial cross over to become white?
I didn’t trust my flawed human eyes to verify what colour it was, because in my deepest heart I know yellow and blue make green
So I took a sample of the colour from the intersection and ran it through http://htmlcolorcodes.com which provides the hexadecimal HTML colour
And then ran that through https://html-color-codes.info/colors-from-image/ to view where the colour was on the spectrum.
The answer is pale green. I posit that the colour pushes towards white because we’re already starting from pale blue and pale yellow. Especially at the point in the triangle intersection, the Blue and Yellow are bright enough that my (again flawed) human eyes tell me it’s white.
So it may really be just a function of brightness, telling us which parts are brighter than the others. When the shot zooms out from the two Pearls, we see whiteness on the ground and some parts of the screen, and we’re meant to see those areas as where more than two colours intersect (sometimes even purple/pink with blue or yellow), meaning it’s brighter, or the light source itself. In the same way even the centre of a yellow light bulb looks white, and only as the distance from the centre increases does the yellowness become apparent.
A question that needs answers: Is the second zircon yellow or green? The lighting was weird and all the filters I put on it that made Steven's colors right showed her yellow but some people insist green
I DON’T KNOW! The model sheets use the same color palettes as the actual episode art, so I can’t know for sure what her default, intended hue is. I’ll ask though!
EDIT: She’s yellow!
Vindication!!!!
There’s so much I love about the contrast of colours. And--
The Diamonds have gem abilities of FEELING
I loved everything about the Trial. The colours, the music, the aesthetic, the contrasts between Blue and Yellow things. 0.0
Yellow Diamond fisically reminds me a bit of Sailor Galaxy from Sailor Moon super stars, both wear yellow, wide shoulder vest, are in a throne.. hehe mainly that..
What I find interesting is how despite the similarities. there are also marked differences. Body language is a good start. Look how SG is so relaxed; it’s a sharp contrast from the tightly-wound and stressed-out YD. It really highlights how SU is trying to humanise the villain-character. It’s really interesting.
Also, look at that eyeliner :D Very YD.
Which yellow character makes you happiest to see? ☀️
But I need my Patti Lupone
