青橙色调——好莱坞，请停止疯狂
Teal and Orange - Hollywood, Please Stop the Madness
2010 — 2011，它一次次回到首页
黑点是上首页（≥ 50 分）的那次投稿，空心点是没冲上去的投稿，点越大分数越高。
导读
这篇博客文章批评好莱坞电影调色越来越趋同：大量使用青蓝色与橙色的互补搭配，并用多部电影的例子展示这种视觉套路。作者认为这种泛滥的调色让电影失去多样性和真实感。
为什么经久不衰：它把一个观众隐约感觉到却说不清的视觉规律讲清楚，一旦注意到就再也无法忽视，因此多年后仍被反复讨论。

青橙色调可能源于保护肤色和记忆色，而非刻意跟风。
对这个现象还有一种替代解释（博文中有链接）：初衷是在不管场景其他部分如何渲染（明亮或暗淡）的情况下，保留肤色和其他“记忆色”（停车标志、出租车）。所以并不是调色师故意把一切弄成青橙——或者说，如今这已成陈词滥调，也许偷懒的调色师会这么做。

Here's an alternate explanation for the phenomenon (linked to from the blog post): http://prolost.com/blog/2010/2/15/memory-colors.html The origin of the idea is to preserve skin tones and other "memory colors" (stop signs, taxi cabs), regardless of how the rest of the scene is rendered (bright or drab). So it's not that film colorists are intentionally making everything teal and orange (or actually maybe the lazy ones are now that's it's become something of a cliche.)
青橙潮流可追溯到《第五元素》与高级时装对橙色的推动。
我认为这一潮流始于《第五元素》，它是最早大量使用橙色的电影之一。当时视觉上很惊艳，因为橙色很抓眼；它也很前卫，因为九十年代中期橙色被认为很俗气。《第五元素》由 Jean Paul Gaultier 造型，他是少数能在时尚界获得最高尊重的前卫设计师之一。可惜的是，《第五元素》的视觉效果如今已经消失，许多曾令人震惊的调色板现在已成标准。时尚就是这样。

I believe this trend started with "The Fifth Element", one of the first movies to use a lot of orange. That film was visually striking at the time, because Orange was such an eye-catching color. It was also avant-garde, because Orange was considered very tacky mid-ninties. The Fifth Element came out several years before the millenium. If you'll recall, Orange was hailed by the fashion world as the color of the millenium. Fifth Element was styled by Jean Paul Gaultier, who is one of the few avant-garde designers to reach the highest echelon of respect in the fashion world. It is because of his rare ability to combine costume and high fashion. Disappointingly, the visual effect of The Fifth Element is now lost. Much of its shocking visual palette is now standard. Such is fashion.
青橙只是又一代表现技术，会随新潮流更替。
每一代都有定义它的电影技术。《黑客帝国》的烟灰绿、迈克尔·曼的低饱和浅景深、大卫·芬奇通过银盐保留延长动态范围同时欠曝——这就是《七宗罪》室内场景那么“暗”却仍有曝光的原因。电影研究的一部分就是追踪技术如何定义一代电影人。调色（比如本文说的橙蓝互补）也受杂志摄影、CGI 趋势等外部影响。总之，过几年会有新的主导“外观”笼罩电影，我们又会有了新的可抱怨对象。

To every generation there is a film technique which defines it. There was the smokey grey/green from the Matrix films. Michael Mann had his desaturated shallow-DOF look. David Fincher uses silver-retention on his film development to extend the dynamic range while underexposing his shots (thats why interiors in Seven were so "dark" yet exposed). Part of the device of cinema is extending the mise-en-scene outward and upward to the representational devices (projection, development and treatment). Part of the study of film is tracing how the use of technique defines generations of film makers. Often, technology serves as an impetus for a style (i.e., Robert Altman and the use of multi-track audio on Nashville precipitated very "talky" films from the 70's/80's), or the developments in computer motion controlled rigs. Or lets not forget: lens flares. Color grading (ie, the orange/blue compliments in this article) are also defined by outward influences like magazine photography, trends in CGI, etc. Anyhow, in a few years a new dominate "look" will pervade cinema and we'll all have something new to complain about.
批评文章夸大其词，色彩偏好只是审美而非客观问题。
只有我不介意蓝橙渐变吗？我不懂为什么大家都为这事激动（这篇文章和许多类似文章过去几年频繁出现）。文章本身甚至不值得读，充满夸张说法，比如“……最终导致史上最烂电影之一的怪物”。尤其是结尾的历史课很多余。讽刺的是，我访问他博客的第一反应是：“天啊，不要又是一个白字黑底的网站！”但我不会为此写文章批评浅色字深色底的潮流——那其实是更合理的抱怨，因为它客观上降低可读性，而橙加蓝只是品味问题。

Am I the only one who doesn't mind the blue/orange gradient? I don't get why everyone is going mental about it (this article and many like it have popped up frequently over the last few years). The article itself isn't even worth reading, filled with hyperboles like "...a monstrosity that would eventually lead to one of the worst films ever...". Especially the history lesson at the end is superfluous. Ironically enough, the first thought I had when I visited his blog was "oh god no not another white text on black background site!". But I'm not going to write an article about the trend of light text on dark background, which would actually be a more valid complaint because it objectively reduces readability, while the orange+blue palette is just taste.
