Adicolor Yellow
Directed by Neill Blomkamp
Produced by RSA Films
A tense, visually kinetic sci-fi short about a rogue cyborg, told through Blomkamp's signature handheld mockumentary style with an ambiguous, unsettling tone.
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.
