Color takes viewers around the world starting with captivating discussions and demonstrations with pigment expert Michael Ambron and celebrity stylist Jerome Lamaar in the Bronx, NY and then to Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Louisiana, to celebrate the vibrancy of French Creole, Caribbean, African, African American, and global cultures. The documentary then travels internationally, experiencing the vibrant colors of the Holi Festival in India, the red sands of the Sahara Desert, the crimson-hued city of Marrakech, Morocco, and to the Great Barrier Reef featuring conversations with marine ecologist Dr. Catherine Kim. The adventure concludes in Alaska with the Northern Lights in Fairbanks, featuring conversations with documentarian Shondiin Mayo.

“Color is more than what meets the eye; it's a language, a story waiting to be told in every corner of the world,” shared Campbell. “Partnering with Comcast and the Black Experience on Xfinity, we aim to transform how audiences experience and interpret color, diving deep into the cultures that breathe life into it.”

Color is the second collaboration between Comcast’s Black Experience on Xfinity and director John Campbell, who previously debuted Who’s Behind Black Art on the platform last year.

“We’re proud to deepen our ongoing collaboration with director John Campbell as we explore the many dimensions of color and its profound impact on our daily lives and we couldn’t think of a better collaborator to explore the topic than Alteronce Gumby, whose obsession with color is so obviously present in all his work,” said Loren Hudson, SVP and Chief Diversity Officer, Connectivity and Platforms at Comcast. “Through Black Experience on Xfinity, we aim to create a space where creators can share their unique perspectives, fostering meaningful connections with audiences everywhere.”
