I heard a several minute piece about the demise of movie film on NPR the other day and laughed a bit when one of the people lamenting film going away gave "film grain" as one of the reasons she would be sad to see it go.


I'm not laughing. Why is black and white often more evocative than color? There is more to visual art than pixel perfect representations of reality.

I rarely find black and white more evocative than color. With black and white, you are playing with light and shadow. In color, you can play with light and shadow PLUS the dimension of color. You are simply afforded more tools to make your art.
