Paragraph
Colour is effective in helping to create the too worlds and show the theme 'looks can be deceiving! The real world study uses a colour palette predominantly of greys, whites, and blues. This creates a cold, lonely, and boring atmosphere. The director did this to show that Coraline is unhappy in the real world and that her real father is to busy to spend time with her. The use of a cold natural light re-enforces this mood. Juxtaposed to this is the use of colour in the other world study. Vibrant reds, oranges and yellows make the room feel warm, safe and cosy. Selick used this palette to show that Coraline is happier in the other world where the other father has time for her.  This shows that 'looks can be deceiving because Coraline mistakes the bright perfect world for a safe place when really it is a trap for Coraline.
