Zen Pencils Comics: 33. EDGAR MITCHELL: A global consciousness

Beautiful quote & illustrations-& oh so true. We take so much for granted without looking at the big picture. It’s a small, fragile, precious planet. It’s our mother, our home. It’s all we have, and if we fuck it up with our petty greed & aggression there is no place to go in the hostile vastness of space… and yet, look at us, stomping in army boots across a field of crystals.

It was my first colour film and I didn’t really know how to handle it, so I decided to shoot each scene in one colour. I rigidly enforced this, but the head of the MGM art department wrote to the head of the studio saying that this film will never be released. He said there’s a scene in a green office, with green walls and seven men all wearing green shirts, green ties and green suits and would thus be unreleasable. I found it extraordinary, coming from someone who presumably has a background in art, as on film some of those greens would shift towards brown, some towards yellow. It was never commented on by anybody in the end, you just got this sense of a single colour at work in each scene, giving it a kind of coherence. I started with very cold colours to correspond to his emotional state, silvers and greys, before moving up the spectrum.
