You are amazing! I’ve been to college for videography, but I also do photos. Not a single teacher taught as much as you do in one simple video. Thank you!

"The Emotional Color Wheel" is an excellent resource (Book) on the emotional values of color and even includes a lot of cultural connections. It also delves into the use of shapes as well.

You've created the most useful, foundational photography videos I've come across. It's like you're teaching us how to fish, instead of giving us fish. Thank you Pat.

This is the simplest breakdown I've seen to date on breaking down color theory and making it much more easier to understand. Great stuff!

This channel has truly given me all the information that I've been looking for since I started photography. There IS a psychology to it, and I'm glad I finally found the doorway. 🙏

I love your videos. Always informative and straight to the point. Everytime you post one of these, I actually learn from it as opposed to other photography videos where algorithm and sponsorship concerns are often the priority. Thank you so much for creating and sharing these videos.

This is a good starting point, just keep in mind that not only do the colours themselves contribute to the composition and weight of an image, the inter-ratio of any colour to another further modifies this and is just as important. E.g. an image with 50% red and 50% green will just be jarring, you will lose the complementry effect. An image with 20% red (maybe its just a coat someone is wearing) against an 80% greens surround will establish the overall base of the image (dominance). The highlight or visual point of interest, the colour you are trying to elevate or draw attention to, will stand out more. Colour needs to be focused/targeted to get the impact you desire. Work your harmonies, but also think hard about what it is about each colour, that you want to promote or demote. The more colours you introduce, the more complex this ratio can get. This also holds true whether you are using highly saturate hues or muted colours. Putting a highly saturated subject that is 50% of your image against a muted complementry colour diminishes the jarring effect, so to just give you a bit more to consider, try to account for saturation too. Colours. Saturation. Harmonies. Ratios. How you mix these will determine whether you get the effect you want or not.

Luminosity is called "value" in the world of painting. In painting, value/luminosity is considered the most important color dimension. Your videos are fantastic. Thank you!

I went from feeling fairly confident in my understanding of color (intuitively, as opposed to in a fact-based), to learning something completely new and that I will apply to my own photography. love the idea of the assignment. Thanks Pat.
