Grayscale
What is grayscale and why is it effective for focusing on form and light?
GLOSSARY
Grayscale in motion graphics and photography involves the use of varying shades of gray, from black to white, excluding color to focus on luminance or light intensity alone. This technique can be used for stylistic reasons, to focus attention on composition and detail, or as a tool in color grading and correction processes.
A motion graphic intro for a historical documentary might employ grayscale to evoke a sense of the past, directing viewer focus to textures, shapes, and lighting without the distraction of color.
The use of grayscale in Videobolt's Newspaper Earth and British Shorthair Cinematic Intro templates effectively highlights their unique themes through the absence of color. In Newspaper Earth, the grayscale palette enhances the vintage newspaper aesthetic, and in British Shorthair Cinematic Intro grayscale gives the footage a classic, timeless look that complements the ironic twist provided by the music choice.
