Matrix Coloring - Blu-ray Forum

TenaciousDHo · 07-06-2009, 04:32 PM

Hey guys, I finally watched The Matrix on blu last night, which looked awesome... BUT, was anyone else a little distracted by the coloring? I think most of it worked, and you can tell there are parts that are intentionally toned down, but it seemed like the skin tones were way off. Most noticeably, when Neo is running from the agents for the first time in the office and through the interrogation scene. At one point, I jumped up from the couch to get a closer look because it looked like Neo had jaundice.

Anybody else notice that? Or am I crazy?

They tinted the scenes that take place "in the matrix" green. And pale.

I kinda figured that, but it didn't seem consistent to me. I'm going to watch it again soon, but I thought it was a little more yellow/green in the beginning, then it evened out and just looked pale.

The "matrix" scenes were originally tinted a yellowish-greenish color. They made it greener to be more consistent with the sequels.

Inside the Matrix colour are always green+pale (Matix coding are coloured green).

If you looks closer at the actors/actress faces, you can see the make up and stuff:P
