After learning about various color
strategies, I realized how little information I actually knew about color
within design. I had also never heard of the term chroma used before. Prior to the
lecture, I was more familiar with saturation, so I was able to learn about a
new word that might be more commonly used in design. Along with this, I thought
I had a fairly solid grasp on how colors are supposed to work together, but I
didn’t realize how many various factors could come into effect when combining
colors in design.
With
the joining of colors, I now have a better understanding of how certain colors,
hues, values, and chromas have an effect on a design. There are many aspects of
color that can greatly improve or worsen a piece of design work. Maybe the
general layout and format of something is correct, but the colors do not
correspond with the different shapes, lines, and feel of the design itself. Color
can create emotion within a design, and if the proper looking color spectrum is
not being used, the design might possibly convey the wrong impression.
Overall,
the color lecture was able to provide me with an improved comprehension of how
color should be used and implemented in a design, so that I can create a proper
portrayal in the most effective way possible.
