[1] In the film-making process, a script may start in white then move to blue then pink then green then yellow and so on. The colour itself is not significant, only serving the purpose of making it immediately obvious during the shoot to see whether or not everyone has the latest version. In Vivian Kubrick's Making the Shining ; a short documentary made on the set of her father's film, Jack Nicholson makes the remark "I quit using my script. I just take the ones they type up each day."
