Adicolor Yellow

Yellow or Adicolor Yellow is a 2006 futuristic short film by director Neill Blomkamp, written by Terri Tatchell and Blomkamp. It was produced at the request of sportswear maker Adidas as a part of its "Adicolor" viral ads campaign, in which advertising agency Idealogue gathered seven directors, assigning a different color to each of them, and asked them to produce a feature based on their emotional and creative response to the given color, later to be distributed in the form of podcasts. The four-minute film, shot by Trent Opaloch in Blomkamp's usual handheld camera mockumentary style, deals with an Israeli robotic globe-trotter gone rogue.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

"Yellow" is a 4-minute short film from 10 years ago written and directed by Neill Blomkamp. I personally am a huge fan of "District 9", so I am also a bit curious about the filmmaker's other works, mostly short films. Unfortunately this one here did not really impress me. Yes Blomkamp's style and narrative approach is clearly recognizable, but the whole story did not do too much for me. The reason may be that I am not the biggest science-fiction fan and thus a bit biased too. The special effects sure are interesting, especially in the times when "Ex Machina" won a visual effects Oscar. The cast are mostly stunt people, but Sharlto Copley has a brief cameo too it seems. I wonder if Blomkamp will ever turn "Yellow" into a full feature and I will say that even if I did not really enjoy these 4 minutes, I would still be curious about it as the story here seems to be so complex that it's almost impossible to make it work convincingly in a film that runs under five minutes. Gigantic challenge for Blomkamp here and he did not fail entirely. I still don't recommend it.

Yellow is an early short film from budding talent Neill Blomkamp who made his way up to directing from visual effects work. In essence it is a show-reel but also part of a viral advertising campaign on behalf of Adidas hence why this film has a theme of yellow.It was shot in a hand-held camera mockumentary style and deals with a robot gone rogue. The film begins by depicting the development process of robotic characters. Five androids were created each one identified with a different colour.The yellow android gained an ability to think and learn and escaped and lived within society for 18 months where it observed humans. It is eventually tracked down by the police and the film finishes with a suggestion that AI becomes part of society.Like his full length films it has elements of social conscious as well as a clever use of special effects and a futuristic setting on a low budget.

"Adicolor Yellow" or just "Yellow" is one of the short films written and directed by District 9's Neill Blomkamp, and I found it to be quite impressive. Done in his typical mockumentary style, the story follows an android that develops enough intelligence to escape its creators and live among society for some 18 months, while being hunted by those creators. While there are obvious similarities to other AI movies including I Robot and Bladerunner, it's Blomkamp's delivery that makes this short film special. In a span of five minutes, we learn everything we need to know about Yellow's development and also see him casually interacting with others. Without ever saying a word, he's believable but also somehow sympathetic and likable. By the end, when he's confronted by security forces sent to retrieve him, we're more attached to him than we are to many heroes in full-length films.Blomkamp knows how to add all the right touches to his films, from slowing down the frame rate to blocking out the sound and adding just the right music instead. The entire short film was rich and alive and believable and heartfelt, and something I would love to see developed in a full-length feature.
