Color and Light - ch 7
Mixing color strings -
A color string is a group of prepared paint blobs of a given hue mixed with a palette knife in a set of steps from light to dark values.
Gamut Mapping -
Polygon superimposed over a color wheel to provide a limited palette
Any triangular gamut has three primaries, one in each corner of the triangle. These are called subjective primaries, because they may not correspond at all with the full-intensity colors we may think of as primary colors. Yet they are the purest and most extreme colors within the gamut you’ve selected.
Premixing is the key to staying within the gamut you want. You define the range of colors, then you mix those colors and use no others. That way, you’ll get exactly the range you want.
You can also use other shapes to create different color schemes
Color Scripting -
In sequential art the colors need to be taken into account to see how they flow together. Gradual changes in color can help the story and convey a mood for the scene
