Spotmaps translates every second of a film into a block of color

What can a film’s color scheme say about its narrative? According to Spotmaps, quite a lot. Created by Andy Willis, Spotmaps is a Python-based project that conceptualizes classic movies not in words or storyboards, but highly-detailed color patterns. The project, which was inspired by Brendan Dawes’ Cinema Redux experiment, translates every second of a film into a single block of color, based on a composite of every frame within that second.
