Color filtering as colorblindness

I suspect Kubrick would have considered the experience of colorblind folks, and that he would want to give them a personal treat. Their colorblindness would be shown to have an advantage rather than a disadvantage only. Experiment with light color filters to mimic the main types of colorblindness, which are: proto (red)Duetero (green)Tri - something (blue - very rare) SEE Colorblindness

Authors on the Importance of Writing the Final Chapter First

Authors on the Importance of Writing the Final Chapter FirstBy Alison NastasiJune 30 2013Share:Writing isn’t necessarily a linear process.

She famously wrote her best-selling story of the Old South backwards, penning the saddest parts of the Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara...

The good, the bad, and the misshelved | Library call numbers in the movies

If you’re a regular reader (thank you!), then you’ll be aware that I often mention call numbers in my posts about reel librarians, as books and their call numbers often serve as props and clues to movie plot points. When I spy a call number onscreen, I always look it up to see if it’s accurate, as call numbers can reveal many things. And when movies get it wrong, I have been known to go on a rant… or two… What’s a call number? Before I get into any rants, however, let’s m...
