Creation of an app that will teach the users to analyze the color in the audiovisual content through films
Problem
The new generations are continuously bombed by audiovisual content, but they did not receive a formation to help them understand the audiovisual narrative. So, they keep being passive spectators and, therefore, manipulable.
Solution
Creation of an app that will teach the users to analyze the color in the audiovisual content through films. This app will consist of mini-games that will lead to the analysis of several films, where the user will interact to discover the meaning of every color actively. The audiovisual narrative is that wide that it is unsustainable in one project. Therefore I have decided to focalize the project on one of their tools, color.

At that point in the project, I knew that it was better to search for quality over quantity. Instead of sending surveys to many people, I decided to perform several workshops with smaller groups to get a more close interaction with them. I performed the workshop on a high school with two groups (8 - 13 participants) and had a duration of 2h each, plus an extra (longer) one with 4 studens that had a duration of 5h.

Color analysis - Black swan
Every time I watched the movie, I was entirely focused on one color, and again with the script on hand, I was writing down every time that that color appears, after I was able to see a patron in each one. Following that, I used all the knowledge learned while identifying the topic to identify the connection and a possible explanation of why they chose that color. There are five symbolic colors in the movie: Black, white, green, pink, and red. Following, I would explain the meaning of these colors inside the movie. Also, this explanation is the one performed the voice over in the app explanatory videos
