• CMYK: Subtractive Color Mixing Model

-Color is created by the subtraction of light

-The CMYK color system is the color system used for printing 

• Hue, shade, tint, and tone

-Hue is the most basic of color terms and denotes an object's color

-Shade is a hue to which black has been added.For example:red+black=burgundy

-Tine is a hue to which white has been added.For example:red+white=pink

-Tone is a color to which black and white (or grey) have been added

-3 colors located next to each other on the color wheel 

-Usually one of the 3 colors predominate 

• Complementary

-Opposite on the color wheel 

-Can make imagery pop, but overusing them can get tiresome

• Split-complementary

-Involves the use of three colors 

• Triadic

-Evenly spaced around the color wheel and tend to be very bright and dynamic 

• The psychology of color

-Colors have an extraordinary ability to provoke specific emotions 

• Warm vs Cool

-Warm color often evokes feeling of happiness, optimism, and energy 

-However yellow, red, and orange can also have an attention grabbing effect and signal danger or make you take action 

 

• Cool colors

-Usually calming and soothing but can also express sadness
