12-Harmony (Color Theory & BG)

when color grading photos, I just randomly picked the color I wanted to stand out. But now when I rechecked these photos I can somehow feel the colors in them telling a story even though it's just a random shot.

Color is more than just tone or hues; it could be a unique sort of language that touches the soul. It can be applied to any medium, digital or traditional, and can be found all over the world.

Our lessons have really expanded my understanding of creative potential; I now feel more confident in illustrating and sharing my work, and I will continue to apply what I've learned in future artworks.

My view on color did change throughout this course. Before this class I was just choosing random colors in my art and not really thinking about what mood/emotion it conveys.

But now that I learned a lot about Color Theory, I am more mindful in what colors I'm using. Color harmonies especially helped me in utilizing more color combinations and look at colors in a different light.

I really enjoyed this class and I will for sure use all the lessons I have learned in my future artworks.

Color has become an everyday need now. Not just for expression, but for also to distinguish everything from each other

-Zach

As a kid I really liked watching movies, especially Disney Movies or Barbie movies, now that we finished Color Theory, I realized that part of why I liked those movies was because of their color. I liked how well they worked together and I can kind of see how much they sort of translate into my works.

If we had more than 3 color cones, we would see and discover more colors.

-Richie

I haven't exactly changed my views but it has expanded on what I can do with color. One example is what I learned about the transitions of colors changing throughout as change occurred in character was a fascinating idea and I'd like to apply it to my work too

Color is a great way to put a structure on:

Emotion

Setting

Expectation

Subversion

and aesthetic

After this course, I've definitely put more importance into color when it comes to my artworks.

I have been able to make more compelling illustrations with this knowledge.

My favorite thing to remember is probably "Color is relative"

Before starting this course, I thought that I already have a good grasp for colors and its roles, but after learning many new things after this course, I thought that color is more than just an appeal for the viewer's eyes and plays a more significant role when it comes to conveying certain messages and justifying an object's aesthetic in the eye of people.

This course expanded my knowledge about the importance, role, and power of colors. This element has a huge impact on storytelling in terms of how people understand the story by setting the mood, intensity, and theme of the story.

-Jastin

Color theory made me realize that there is more to what we know about colors. The power color holds in an artwork creates an impact to the audience in different personal ways, depending on how they see it. This course allowed me to enhance my knowledge about the use of colors and how to take advantage of them to convey a story or a message through my works.

Color is a way of tell a story!!! When creating new artworks, I now tend to show not only through lines the meaning of my artworks but also through colors <333

- Chelsea

color plays a huge role hindi lang po sa mood and tone ng form of art pero pati po sa kung paano mo ipapadama yung emotion sa audience. pero kailangan pa rin po ng tamang paggamit ng hue, saturation, and value.

I see now the level of work and knowledge it takes to use color effectively in film, which has made me way more appreciative of some of my favorite films that liberally use color in that way.

Marbled statues from Greece in the 1600 BCE used to have color in them, the paint was just washed off resulting in a white and pristine look.

- Richie

Color can communicate emotions and specific concepts in artwork or film and sometimes colors can bring a different meaning out of its common meaning when mixed with other colors.

And now, every time I watch films like HOTD, MCAI, etc., or read manhwas. I always observed how they use colors in those films. Unlike before, I never noticed it.

Color can say/tell the mood of a story. It gives the viewer an understanding what and how the characters feel.

I learned that color plays a much more important role in design than I thought. Before, I just chose colors for an artwork or design only because I thought they looked good together, but since then my knowledge has expanded. Now, I have to think and put in a lot more care in deciding and incorporating colors in a design. : - )

Color is way more interesting than it looks. I remember seeing a post how color change the perception of people especially on food. If you make blue rice would it be as appetizing as the regular one or even better, a yellow rice?

Color is a powerful thing to use against your audience lol

-Raphael Estrada

I realized that colour really is an important thing to consider in making different art. Whether its to convey an emotion or to set a scene. Colour can help establish a movie, show or artwork's message

In our lesson, it has helped me give a better understanding with colors and the possibilities I could achieve with it. I also realized how important it is to take into consideration its meaning, their combination, and more.

Colors are not limited to certain symbols assigned to them. Even the color orange can mean danger or the use of yellow can be used for not-so-happy moments.
