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.

Ralph Eggleston set the visual style for Toy Story with his original colorscript. Production designer Bill Cone expanded on it for Toy Story 2. “It’s writing a symphony where the dynamics of the plot are reflected in the dynamics of light and color,” offers Cone. “The expresssion of light and color in storytellling is a bottomless well of inquiry. You won’t run out of ways to expresss mood and emotion through those qualities.”
