I'd be nice to have a color legend next to the y-axis of hue

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 35 points 4 months ago

Or even better, change the color of the points and lines to match the associated hue.

[-] petrol_sniff_king@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 4 months ago

That'd be nice.

90 and 120 are rolling through the greens. Are posters mostly green? That seems odd to me.

[-] bob_lemon@feddit.org 17 points 4 months ago

The problem is that averaging hue makes no sense at all because hue is not a longest scale.

If you take a red poster (0) and a blue poster (240), it averages to green. Or take red (0) and red (359), averaging to cyan (180).

[-] flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 months ago

The average of 0° and 359° is obviously 359.5°.

it's a radial scale.

[-] bob_lemon@feddit.org 9 points 4 months ago

By that logic, the average of red and cyan is both purple and lime. Still useless.

[-] flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

Not if there is a clear trend. If most movie posters are blue, three average will be blue.

But i agree, it is useless if there is no clear trend.

yeah that part of the graph is completely useless to people who haven't memorised the exact degrees of the scale, which is most people, even most artists

Be nice to have the y axis start at zero so we could get a realistic sense of the fluctuations.

Yes yes this is pedantic for a chart about movie posters, but we’re all pretty desensitised to disinformation; feels useful to train myself to recognise it & speak out about it. The y axis isn’t visible, so the chart is misleading 🤷‍♂️

[-] filcuk@lemmy.zip 7 points 4 months ago

The values changed so little compared to the full spectrum it wouldn't make sense.
You're not comparing to zero, but relative to values over time.
I agree with how it's presented.

Zooming out a little would at least show that the changes are minor.

[-] friendly_ghost@beehaw.org 9 points 4 months ago

I'd love to see this for luminance. I know my vision is getting worse, but I cannot see the goddamn Batman or anything else made in the last five years

is this loss?
