A colorscript is a sequence of small pastel drawings or paintings used to emphasize color in each scene and establish a film's visual language.

Lou Romano created his colorscript for The Incredibles with the 1960s sensibilities that infused the rest of the film. Romano’s technique was to “create these shapes that basically told the story in color,” says character designer Teddy Newton. “I really took a lot of inspiration from these colorscripts.” The filmmakers paid homage to Romano’s “basic shapes” in crafting the kinetic 2D end credit sequence.
