Tints and Shades

I was reading the lecture notes and I was thinking of were are those colours, tints and shades are used. And then I thought to my self everywhere. The most common place that you are going to see the combination of those colours are not only in nature but in the movies as well. Using the tints and shades they are setting the mood for the to viewer, they are leading our feeling and thoughts go in the direction they want to express. For instance in the movie Lord Of The Rings there is a scene where everything is bright (used tints), by that it gives you a positive feeling, everything is fine and peaceful. On the other hand there is another scene full of shades expressing a bad feeling, it makes you expect that something bad is going to happen. Colour is very important when you are creating a scene because with the wrong tints and shades you might give the opposite feeling than the one you want.
