LA05 Colour

Colour Associations and Words

For this activity we had to match up words that we associate with colours and also select different shades that pair best with each word.
























 
Colour Wheel

Here we had to make our own colour wheel based on the instructions provided.



























And then using left over squares we constructed our own colour wheel in our journals and thought up some colour schemes.


























Colour College

Using our new knowledge we then had to creat a colour college with numbers.
 




















Colour Associations: Australia

Next, we noted what colours we associated with Australia and made a "mood board" to reflect this, as well as a personal one for our own lifestyle.























Colour Branding

Our next task was to explore colour branding and how it is used. An interesting trend I noticed was contrasting colours and colours that reflect the brand concepts or marketing point.





















Illustration Briefs: effective limited use of colour

In this, we looked at how book covers often rely on limited colours to present their message and the different methods illustrators and designers use to put this across. Here are some examples I found.
