CHROMA
Be who you want. Anywhere. Anytime.
The way we control the course of action unfolds like a mirror with Chroma Key technology. The images, colors, and backgrounds that overlap allow us to reach virtual environments that recreate the reality we intended for this story.
In Chroma, we jump from dream to dream with the speed and luminescence of the verb "to want." And thus, we dared to feel warmth out of season, experience timelessness, feel the passion of another life, have flaws that there (I don’t know where) are virtues, drink tea from India before the discoveries, and drown in the logic of human imperfection only to wake up without the weight of the late hour.
Naked of prejudices, we continue, adjusting sadness in lost gazes, redefining the color of happiness to a more omnipresent yellow, emptying blue into crystalline cascades, softening the darkness of sleepless nights, and highlighting the red of your smile when it closes.
Imagining nourishes the veins of thought and saturates the horizon with freedom. The freedom to be where you want, whenever you desire.
In the realm of technology and video editing, "Chroma" refers to the purity or intensity of color in a given visual context. It is the saturation or vividness of a color in an image. It constitutes one of the three main characteristics that define a color, along with its hue and luminosity (lightness or darkness).
