Germany’s ''Kurzgesagt-- In a Nutshell'' is a science-based animation channel that extracts key information from research papers, undergoes fact-checking and complexity assessment, cites sources to handle controversial topics, and designs scripts based on research to create animations. Due to the lack of concrete images and colors in research discourse, the purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between color and research discourse. Using animated works on‟marijuana legalization”as a case study, the research analyzes the vocabulary and corresponding colors through text analysis to investigate how color conveys controversial research topics. This study adopts a textual analysis method, with the scope of analysis including visual content, dialogue, and meaning. It discusses the background, symbolism, and the use of object colors, with a particular focus on the role of color in conveying positive or negative emotions through words. Additionally, it explores how the work connects its color choices and design significance through vocabulary. Research results indicate that color transformation plays a framing role in case studies. When citing research discussions, colors can create a sense of imagery and observational scope for the vocabulary used in the study. The use of adjacent and contrasting colors can visually link similar concepts and related vocabulary. By employing combinations of‟yellow, green”and‟purple, pink”color schemes can be recreated to represent the concept of‟risk”linking discussions on concepts such as safety and danger, individual and society, health, and risk in research topics. Overall, color, as a social symbolic resource, not only creates meaning visually in concepts and discourse but can also influence the audience’s emotions, attitudes, and understanding of issues. It is recommended that future research further explore audience reactions from different cultural backgrounds and the color creation process of creators. |
