Gritty tones are in general easier and cheaper to produce in live-action than shiny ones, so low-budget or quickly-made films are more often in a gritty style. Examples include low-budget horror films, action shows, and dystopian series. A dystopian sci-fi series set in a post-apocalyptic US may be less expensive to produce than a SpaceOpera set in a distant planet's [[StandardRoyalcourt royal court]], because the dystopian series can be set in an AbandonedArea where the [[Disaster Scavengers survivors]] have erected crude structures from [[DowninTheDumps scrap]]. In contrast, the SpaceOpera will need costly sets for the BlueBlood character's gleaming spaceship interiors, royal halls, and lavish ballrooms.

Stereotypically "shiny" elements include [[AsceticAesthetic plastic, chrome]], precious metals, gems, glass, light, fine woods, fine fabrics, bright colors, pastels, pop music, classical music, and ballads (power, or otherwise). "Gritty" elements include dirt, rust, dust, blood, iron, broken glass, darkness, rough plywood, burlap, [[DeliberatelyMonochrome deliberate monochrome]], [[RealIsBrown sepia]], hard rock, punk rock, and heavy metal. But context is everything. Many choices fall somewhere in between the gritty and shiny extremes; hence, the "sliding scale".
