This first half of the color course focuses on understanding color from the terms associated with color, how lights project color, choosing color schemes, and much more. We go into different discussions like why Red and Cyan are considered true complimentary colors instead of red and green.
The second half focuses on working with color. I often find it easier to understand new concepts by first recognizing I was doing something wrong in the first place. We will go through the common mistakes associated with color and how to go about correcting them. Then we go through color shifting using HSB and how to push it even further with fantastical intuition if you want to. From there we explain how important contrast is and having your color speak harmoniously with one another based on their relativity. After we talk about working with the perceptions of each color. In the last videos we touch on the importance of working with neutrals, how light affects color, and confidence!
This course also offers a downloadable color wheel that we created with the pure hues, helpful guides, and rotating color scheme creators.

Hint: Apparently this course got updated recently and 10 additional lessons in the chapter 'Working with Color' have been added. Unfortunately I couldn't get a hold on the updated project files as well.
