A cor como elemento sensorial e de construção narrativa no figurino de O Auto da Compadecida (2000)

Abstract

Color and costumes are elements of visual language that play an important role in building the narrative of films. In addition to communicating, the costume is essential for the recognition of the characters, since it is able to delimit time, social class, occupation, age, personality and allied colors, help achieve the intended dramatic impact. In O Auto da Compadecida (2000) the chromatic compositions of clothing influence and contribute to the construction of the narrative, transmitting messages and characterizing the characters. This palette also helps to establish the relation of the viewer to the film, since the colors provoke their own sensations and meanings. The objective of this work is to analyze how the color helps in the design of the costumes collaborating with the history and understanding of the profile of the characters.
