fahrenheit 451
Within this graphic novel the reader is shown many techniques that help illustrate this story. The color maintained throughout this novel are blues, reds, yellows, and grays. This choice in color scheme helps keep the story sad and dark. It reminds us of a hell, which the main character believes he is living in. Also with in this book there are some cells on the page with a zoomed out picture behind which emphasizes the focus of were this story is headed. On the cover there is shown and large pile of books being burned which also helps show where the book is headed. The letters of the title have a shadow of read on them which also foreshadows the burnings of the writings that helped raise human belief.

I agree with this. I think color was the most interesting part of the entire story. I also would like to point out that there are very few colors used and as the story went on, the colors began to take on a pattern. Each color took on a different meaning for every reader. When the colors reappeared, the mood of the original color also reappeared.
