Image #1- Family Guy

Image #2

The still images from animation that I chose are from the popular television show Family Guy. Both of these images have completely different qualities.  For color, the first image has a different hue than the second image. The first image uses a lot of different shades of a lighter blue while the second image has more green. Both of these images do use blue, which is in the same hue. The brightness (also value) on the images is also different. The first image is much brighter and uses brighter blues and lighter colors in general. This is because the room is supposed to be lit up which makes it brighter than the nighttime of the second picture. The second image has a darker blue, dark green, and a lot of darker colors to show the darkness of nighttime. The second image has a better saturation than the first image. In the first image the colors seem to be a little more washed out even though they are brighter. The second image has bold colors that do not seem as washed out. Another part of the image is the lighting. The first image has shadow while the second one does not. In the first image you can see the shadow of the two characters on each of their pillow as opposed to the second image where it is nighttime so no shadows can be seen. The moods of the images are also different. The first image is lighter and the two characters are sitting there about to go to sleep either knitting or reading. There is nothing heavy in this image unlike the second one. That scene clearly has a dark mood to it because there is a gun and it is pointed at someone. Clearly there is something bad going to happen in this image. This also works with symbolism because the first image is just showing that they are having a quiet time and going to sleep and nothing is really happening. The second image clearly has had something happen and someone is going to pay for it.
