Colours and Language

These are the colours that i believe have connotations to the radio dramas theme and the relationships between the main characters.

  • Red: connotates anger which could describe the emotions between the two rivals Lauren and Vivienne

  • Green: connotates envy/ jelousy again words that relate to the feud between our protagonist and adversary.

  • Black: As well as connotating darkness it also connotates sophistication which is what to be expected in the fashion industry

  • Purple: Is known to be an luxurious colour a positive correlation with the fashion industry

  • Grey: To me connotates uniform this is relevant to the lifestyle and attitude everyone would expect from Lauren being in the industry and her struggle to fit in. It could also mean an extra meaning. For instance 'everything is not black and white' or 'Reading between the lines'

  • Blue: The connotation of sadness relating to the sad events that occur in Lauren's life which keeps our target audience empathetic towards her character.

There is usually a stereotypical relationship made between fashion and France- Paris known as the place of fashion for this reason translating these colours in French could give us an ideal radio drama title.

  • Red = Rouge
  • Green= Vert
  • Black= Noir
  • Purple= Violet
  • Grey= Gris
  • Blue= Bleu
