With this weeks colour lecture, we were looking at colour and contrast. this is based on the hue of the colour and the dimensions within those colours. It was also looking at colours in relation to one another and how the effect one another. We were told a few sentances about colour that would help us understand when talking about contrast:
Contrast of tone. formed by the juxtaposition of light and dark values. This could be monochromatic.
Also when the tone og two colours are simila it mean their tonal contrast is lower - this is because they are similar.
Contrast of Hue. Formed by the juxtaposing of different hues. The greater the distance between hues on a colour wheel, the greater the contrast.
Contrast of saturation. Formed by the juxtaposition of light and dark values and their relative saturations.
Contrast of extension. Formed by assigning proportional field sizes in relation to the visual weight of a colour. also known as the contrast proportion.
Contrast of temperature. Formed by juxtaposing hues that can be considered warm or 'cool'. Also known as the contrast of warm and cool.
After the lecture we then had to create a circle in the room with all the objects we had used in the previous week going form one colour to another.
After we had done this we then had to take our objects and place them on different coloured card to establish the impact these colours made on the object. We took a lot of photos and then had to pick 10 of the images that we thought had the most impact on the pobjects.
