Colour in..... The Matrix

In the matrix the colour palettes change from world to world. Scenes within the matrix have a very strong green tint overlaid across the shots. This is to give the audience the impression that what they're watching is the green code that is considered to be the code that the matrix consists of so by the world being tinted this green we are made to believe that anything we see in this shade are fake images made by the matrix. Whereas in the real world in the film where most of the story plot is spent underground the hue is a lot more blue. The highlights are a lot less subtle and there are far more shadows throughout. This is to give the viewer the impression that the real world is in a desperate and dark state.
