contents Niebrzydowski introduced a theory of region colorings for surface links. In this paper, we translate the coloring invariant to the context of triplane diagrams and movies of knots. We provide inequalities between the number of region colorings and topological quantities of $F$, such as the number of saddles in a movie and the bridge index of a triplane diagram of $F$. As an application, we show that Yoshikawa's 2-knots $9_1$ and $10_2$ are non-invertible; that is $F\not=-F$.
