                Brandi il Mondo / Villain (Emily Zink)                                    

Hipster Man / Hero (Adam Cesarz) 

                                                                                               

Brandi il Mondo or the villain uses one hue with different saturation's which is a dark color most resembling black from what I can see. The brightness also helps convey the feeling that she is evil because she is surrounded by darkness. The mood that I get when I look at her is sinister because she has an evil smirk on her face and she is surrounded by darkness which also helps her image as a villain. There is affinity used in the color of her costume with the background which could help show how she blends in with the background or to show how she is stealthy. The contrast is shown through the difference between the color of her hair and the background. Hipster uses more brightness to contrast with the villain using a split-complementary color scheme with the blue, green, and red. The mood that The Hipster conveys to me would be angry and determined by his facial expression he is not too happy most likely because of Brandi il Mondo and probably determined to stop her. The Hipster also stands in front of a bright background compared to Brandi il Mondo's character who stands in front of a dark background which is contrast between the two images.

Lightning Man/ Hero (Sam Binnig)                      

Puck / Villain (Colin Mercer

Lightning Man uses an analogous color scheme with the red and yellow with different saturation's to get the black color. The brightness in Lightning Man's picture is brighter than that of Puck's who has a dark background which is to convey that he is evil and dark hearted. Puck uses a analogous color scheme as well with the purple and blue with different saturation's to get the dark color. The two character's color scheme are complements of each other on the color wheel. Puck has a lot more shadows and darkness to convey a darker mood than Lightning man who doesn't really have shadows except has brightness which contrast each other.  Lightning Man has a square head linear body and Puck has a circular and a curvilinear body which contrast each other as well.

Thunderthighs (Matt Brody)

T Storm (Alex Bolinger)

Thunderthighs uses an analogous color scheme because the purple and blue are next to each other on the color wheel these colors are complementary to the colors of T Storm who uses a Green and Yellow color scheme which are also analogous to each other. There is more darkness in Thunderthighs characters which could show that he is a darker character or more evil than T storm. Thunderthighs has a square head compared to T storms round head which contrast to each other. The movements of the characters are different because Thunderthighs uses fire to fly away and move around, and T Storm uses instant transmission to move around. There is tension and release used in T Storms clip because when T Storm uses instant transmission he transports from one part of the screen to another and the tension is because you do not know when he is going to teleport or where he is going to teleport to. The release comes when he finally teleports and returns back from teleporting.
