Lighting styles

The movie “Tangled” is an animated film with an amazing color palette. Most of the colors they used throughout this cute fairytale were sunlight. The degrees ranged from 5000-6500K. This covered the sun directly at noon, then regular daylight and sun through clouds.  They chose beautiful scenery and extraordinary lighting for this movie! They made sure that the sun always caught her long beautiful blond hair. In the scene where they are outside sitting beneath the tree her hair is the main focal point because the sunlight outlined fragments her hair. In this particular scene most everything is green besides her purple dress, which makes her hair stand out against everything else.

The next image was a night scene, but again they made sure to illuminate her long blond hair like the sun.

This image was meant to be an interior shot of her home where she has captured the guy who thought her house was just a hide out spot. The lighting for this was meant to be sunlight coming in through her windows that caught her long blond locks.

This one is one of the few shots that doesn’t illuminate her hair, but focuses on the guy. The shot is meant for an exterior look with the sunlight coming through the trees to catch his face and the beautiful grass.

Another forest shot with the sunlight beaming through the holes of the trees that catches the blanket of grass below them and to catch her hair again. 

These last two images are exterior night shots with Chinese lanterns filling the sky around them.

This movie has beautiful colors and the artist did an amazing job coloring most of the images as if it were actual sunlight. This is also a great movie for ALL girls to watch!!
