* In ''VideoGame/NoUmbrellasAllowed'', the cards describing an item's attributes are given different colors. The item's kind is gray while the rest are brown: among the latter, the objective attributes such as material have a green corner, the subjective ones such as the amount of damage have a blue corner, while the cards whose values increase when you level up your shop stats have a pink corner.

* ''VideoGame/PAYDAY3'': Standard cops are clad in dark blue, whilst [[BanditMook Hostage Rescue units]] are clad in white and sabotage teams wear black and gold.

* ''WebVideo/LifeSMP'': Player names are displayed in different colours depending on how many lives they have, and some also choose to change their Minecraft skins to reflect their life count. Green indicates three lives, yellow is two, and red is one.

* ''LetsPlay/LifeSMP'': Player names are displayed in different colours depending on how many lives they have, and some also choose to change their Minecraft skins to reflect their life count. Green indicates three lives, yellow is two, and red is one.

* ''WebVideo/NewLifeSMP''[[note]]Unrelated to the ''LetsPlay/LifeSMP'' above outside of {{Mythology Gag}}s and creator overlap[[/note]]: Each player has six lives in total, and each life is indicated with a health bar of different colours: default red, orange, yellow, light green, blue/cyan, and purple.

* ''LetsPlay/NewLifeSMP''[[note]]Unrelated to the ''LetsPlay/LifeSMP'' above outside of {{Mythology Gag}}s and creator overlap[[/note]]: Each player has six lives in total, and each life is indicated with a health bar of different colours: default red, orange, yellow, green, blue/cyan, and purple.

Each layer has its own color.

* ''Series/{{Degrassi}}'': Community School introduces uniforms in Season 10 of the eponymous show, color-coded by year (Grade 12-blue, 11-red, 10-purple, 9-yellow). This holds the next year, apparently for the viewers' convenience -- in a real school, it would make more sense for the rising students to keep their present colors with blue rotated to the incoming freshmen.

* PowerupFullColorChange: New colour equals new powers.

** DarkIsEvil: Dark colors are prominent in the forces of evil.
** DarkIsNotEvil: A dark color scheme is associated with the forces of good.

** LightIsGood: Light colors are portrayed as a force of benevolence/good.
** LightIsNotGood: Light hues are presented as evil.

** During the Clone Wars Republic ships and vehicles featured red markings (diplomatic ships from the galactic capital of Coruscant had a full red paintjob, and the Coruscant Guard got its red markings from being stationed there), while Separatist ones had blue ones. The 501st Legion having blue markings on their troopers' armor while being a Republic unit serves as a subtle {{Foreshadowing}} that [[BigBad Palpatine]] actually controls both sides and Anakin, the 501st commander, will end up as its {{Dragon}}.

** Blue: Westside Rollerz/Deckers
** Orange: [[MegaCorp Ultor Corporation]]

** ElementalHairColors: A character's hair color matches the ElementalPower they use, fitting a ColorCodedElements scheme.

** In the first movie, the good guys are blue and the bad guys are red.
** ''Film/TronLegacy'' uses this to great effect, though it also plays with it a bit: white and blue characters are considered good guys, but in multiple cases, characters of both colors oppose the protagonist out of circumstance.

* In ''Film/BackToTheFuture'', the [=DeLorean=]'s LED displays are red for "Destination Time", green for "Present Time", and yellow for "Last Time Departed", in homage to 1960's ''Film/{{The Time Machine|1960}}''. In ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII'', Doc has made presto logs, color-coded green, yellow and red in increasing order of the amount of heat each produced to make their train run faster, with a corresponding gauge showing when it would happen.

** In Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, all playable characters have unique color palettes even when they reclass (except into the DLC Overclasses, which consist of the same uniforms for everyone). For instance, the cleric Silque has a deep blue color scheme across all her classes. [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/f/f6/Silque_Cleric.png/revision/latest?cb=20170628191133 This is her in her base class]] compared with [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/9/90/Silque_Saint.png/revision/latest?cb=20170628191150 her promoted class, Saint]] and then [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/d/d6/Silque_Cavalier.png/revision/latest?cb=20170628190930 Cavalier]], the last of which she can only access through the DLC-locked Villager's Pitchfork.

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'':

** Bora Caraca, the “unofficial sixth band member” is Orange

* The ballet adaptations of ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream'' (using the incidental music of Music/FelixMendelssohn) usually have similar costume designs in contrasting colours for the two mortal couples, to help the audience to keep track of who is who in the absence of spoken dialogue. George Balanchine's ballet [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrfiusNHCls (NYC Ballet's 2017 production)]] has Hermia and Lysander as the "blue couple" and Helena and Demetrius as the "red couple", while in Frederick Ashton's ballet adaptation titled "The Dream" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3APvyV9q2Q (American Ballet Theatre production)]] it's the other way round.
