Digital Photography and Imaging - Week 7

LECTURES:

Today we learn COLOUR THEORY. Colour mode has been divided to two mode, CMYK and RGB.

CMYK, the shortform of CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW and BlACK, is colour mode that use for printing.
RGB (RED, GREEN, BLUE), is use on computer screen, TVs,screens and projectors.

Apart from that, we also learn the changes of colour.

Hue, shade tint and tone.
-Hue is the most basic of terms and denotes an object's color.
-Shade is a hue which blackhas been added.
-Tint is a hue which white has added.
-Tone is a color which black and white/grey have been added.

Also, we learned the harmonious of colour. Colour harmony is the arrangement of the colors in design in the most attractive and effective way for users' perception.

Analogous, complementary, split-complementary and triadic
-Analogous are 3 colors located rught next to each other on the color wheel.
-Complementary colors are opposites on the color wheel
-Split-complementary involves the use of 3 colors. ( Start with one color, find its complement and use the wo colors beside its complement.)
-Triadic colors are evenly spaced around the color wheel and tend to be very bright and dynamic.

Lastly, we learned the color psychology.

-Warm colours ( yellow, red and orange ) often evoke feelings of happiness, optimism and energy.
-Cool colours ( green, blue and purple ) are usually cal,ing and smoothing but can also express sadness.
-Black adds an air of sophistication and elegance, and also mystery, though with much bolder confidence.
-White gives off an impression of clean, virtuous, healthy.
