Movie Barcodes are the entire frames of a film compressed into a barcode.
Below are barcodes for Pixar’s films.
Look at Finding Nemo vs. Ratatouille: Do you see the difference in the bright sea colors of one film as opposed to the richer earth tones of the other?
Stuff to note:
- the overall color scheme
- when a particular segment takes place
- the emotional journey through the film
There is a myriad of ways to take in a movie barcode and use it as an alternate means of studying a particular film. Take your time absorbing Pixar’s repertoire then search online for other barcodes.









Can you determine at what point the story moves from the garbage-filled Earth and off into space? It’s a pretty clear distinction between color schemes.
