Introduction Of Color Studies

PRIMARY COLOR

THREE PRIMARY COLORS : RED ,BLUE , AND YELLOW . THEY ARE CALLED PRIMARY COLORS BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BE CREATED BY MIXING OTHER COLORS . PRIMARY COLORS FORM THE BASIS FOR COLOR THEORY OR COLOR MIXING , AS USING THESE THREE COLORS IT'S POSSIBLE TO MIX MOST OTHER COLORS .  

Secondary Color

A secondary color is a color made by mixing two primary colors together: red and yellow to get orange, yellow and blue to get green, or red and blue to get purple. The secondary color depends on the proportion in which you mix the two primaries.

TERTIARY COLOR 

THEY'RE CREATED BY MIXING EITHER ALL THREE PRIMARY COLOR OR A PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COLOR ( SECONDARY COLOR OF COURSE BEING MADE FROM TWO PRIMARIES ) .

Color Wheel

A color wheel (also referred to as a color circle) is a visual representation of colors arranged according to their chromatic relationship. Begin a color wheel by positioning primary hues equidistant from one another, then create a bridge between primaries using secondary and tertiary colors.

WARM & COOL COLOR 

REDS , ORANGES , AND YELLOWS ARE CONSIDERED WARM COLORS .
BLUES ,GREENS AND PURPLES ARE CONSIDERED COOL COLORS .

TINTS , TONES , SHADE AND NEUTRALS COLOR 

A TINT IS A MIXING RESULT OF ORIGINAL COLOR TO WHICH HAS BEEN ADDED WHITE . IF YOU TINTED A COLOR , YOU'VE BEEN ADDING TO THE ORIGINAL COLOR . A TINT IS LIGHTER THAN THE ORIGINAL COLOR .

THERE IS A BROADER AND A NARROWER DEFINITION OF TONE . THE BROADER DEFINITION DEFINES TONE AS A RESULT OF MIXING A PURE COLOR WITH ANY NEUTRAL/GRAY SCALE COLOR INCLUDING THE TWO EXTREMES WHITE AND BLACK . BY THIS DEFINITION ALL TINTS AND SHADES ARE ALSO CONSIDERED TO BE TONES .

A SHADE IS A MAXING RESULT OF AN ORIGINAL COLOR TO WHICH HAS BEEN ADDED BLACK . A SHADE IS DARKER THAN THE ORIGINAL COLOR .

A NEUTRAL IS A WHITE TO BLACK . A NEUTRAL ALSO IS VALUE .

Color Harmony

Color harmony is used to describe which colors go well together to create a decorative space that is appealing to the eye. The color wheel is used to match shades together.

Analogous

Analogous color schemes use colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. They usually match well and create serene and comfortable designs.

Complementary 

Colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel are considered to be complementary colors (example: orange and blue).

Split-Complementary 

The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement.

Triad

A triadic color scheme uses colors that are evenly spaced around the color wheel.
They form a triangle on the color wheel and are colors that cannot be mixed from any other colors. These are the only colors that can be found in nature.

Rectangle (tetradic)

The rectangle or tetradic color scheme uses four colors arranged into two complementary pairs.

TASK 1 : BASIC SETTING 

*Aperture

Aperture is referred to the lens diaphragm opening inside a photographic lens. The size of the diaphragm opening in a camera lens REGULATES amount of light passes through onto the film inside the camera the moment when the shutter curtain in camera opens during an exposure process. The size of an aperture in a lens can either be a fixed or the most popular form in an adjustable type (like an SLR camera). Aperture size is usually calibrated in f-numbers or f-stops. i.e. those little numbers engraved on the lens barrel like f22 (f/22),16 (f/16), f/11, f/8.0, f/5.6, f/4.0, f/2.8, f/2.0, f/1.8 etc. Each of this value represents one time the amount of light either more or less in quantity. Meaning to say, f/16 will let in 1X the amount of light than a diaphragm opening of f/22 and so forth; while on the other hand, an aperture of f/4.0 will let in 1X lesser than that of f/2.8 etc.

shutter speed

What is shutter speed ? The aperture diaphragm of a lens (bigger or smaller values) AND timing (open and close) of the camera's shutter curtain - BOTHperform the tasks of regulating the amount of light entering the camera and expose onto the film. The shutter speed scales engraved on the shutter speed dial of conventional camera bodies with a shutter speed ring OR via some flickering digital numerals on the LCD screen like: 1/8000, 1/4000, 1/1000, 1/500, 1/250, 1/125, 1/60, 1/30, 1/15, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1 or -1, -2 etc. are essentially indicators of the duration (timing) at which the shutter curtain opens up and closes during an exposure process. A 1/125 setting means the shutter curtain open and close within one hundred and twenty five of a second while 1 means an one full-second the shutter opens up during exposure to absorb the available light source onto the film to form an exposure.

ISO

In very basic terms, ISO is the level of sensitivity of your camera to available light. The lower the ISO number, the less sensitive it is to the light, while a higher ISO number increases the sensitivity of your camera. The component within your camera that can change sensitivity is called “image sensor” or simply “sensor”. It is the most important (and most expensive) part of a camera and it is responsible for gathering light and transforming it into an image. With increased sensitivity, your camera sensor can capture images in low-light environments without having to use a flash. But higher sensitivity comes at an expense – it adds grain or “noise” to the pictures.

Depth of Field

A camera can only focus its lens at a single point, but there will be an area that stretches in front of and behind this focus point that still appears sharp.

This zone is known as the depth of field. It’s not a fixed distance, it changes in size and can be described as either ‘shallow’ (where only a narrow zone appears sharp) or deep (where more of the picture appears sharp).
