This week we had to collect a series of objects from our given colour to work with on Tuesday. I was green so I brought in items such as beer bottles, apples and anything i could find lying around. We firstly had a lecture with Fred learning about the firmaments of colour and how they can be used within graphic Design, this included learning about primary, secondary and tertiary colours.
Primary Colours- Red, Yellow and Blue. Theoretically these three colors can be combined to make any other color.
Secondary- Are produced by mixing pairs of primary colors. They are orange, green and violet.
Tertiary- A color made by mixing one primary color with one secondary color
After this we had to arrange our coloured objects on the surrounding tables so that they represented a colour wheel, colours opposite each other are complimentary colours. For example green was opposite red.
Afterwards we we taught about Pantone colours and were given some Pantone colour swatches to play around with. For £160 each I'm going to have to get saving.
With our green objects we then had to use the pantone colour swatches to try and find the exact pigment of colour that they corresponded to.
