COMD1100 Project #5 – Page 3

Color Interaction Parings: Phase 3

This project I found to be really fun and interesting. Not only was everyone able to work with a partner but we had the chance to get to know our partners in this activity. So with my partner Tyler, we had to pick a color for each other that best represents the other person’s personality. Then we had to pick a color that matches both of our personality traits. Next we had to come up with logos that represented each other but in a way that they are similar. With all of these elements we had to make sure our work showed simultaneous contrast. I chose yellow-green for Tyler because he’s mainly funny and outgoing(that represents the yellow) but at the same time he’s relaxed(that represents the green). Tyler chose to do a pink-blue color for me because although I’m cheerful and giggly(that represents the pink) I’m also intellectual, trustworthy and relaxed(that represents the blue). Our shared color is a blue-green to represent our relaxed traits. Tyler chose a cat logo for me since I’m cuddly but clever like a cat. I chose a dog for Tyler because dogs are outgoing and he really loves dogs. This part took about 4 hours and 30 minutes to complete.

Color Interaction Parings: Phase 3

Colors indicate different things, such as emotion, feeling, and personality. From this project, I learn to discribe a person by using colors instead of using literature words. I chose dark blue as a representation for my partner. His first impression to me was he is a calm person who good at observing people. And after comprehend more about him from the conversation, I convinced I was right. Considered he took phycology in high school, enjoy in reading books more than entertainment with others, and likely isolated himself from people, I determine he is an introvert with sensitive feeling, intelligent but mostly used it for himself only, don’t easily show expression or feelings because of too calm. According to these observations I chose for him dark blue, a color mixed of blue and black. The logo I chose for him is an eyeball, eyeball represents mystery, he’s fully surrounding by it, another reason is because he can’t stop observing people so I believe the eyeball is the best logo to indicate him. We spend about a half hour to finish everything. It’s a interesting project, and I learned new knowledge of colors.

Color Interaction Parings: Phase 3

I really liked this part of the project, since we were able to work with a partner and use illustrator. For this project, me and my partner Romie picked a color that represents us both for the logo color and picked a relative personality color that represented us separately. We came up with idea for the logo should be a abstract. I think it was a great idea, since many people done a silhouette of an animal. I came up with this logo that combined with Romie ‘s hobbies. (*On the right) Including the curves that represents the creativeness and the pointy thorn looking curves indicates his smartness that goes straight to his point. Lastly, the little circle shows his personality that makes everything in put together. It took us about the whole class time to work on gathering ideas of personality wise, colors and hobbies. Including working on the illustrator and finishing it. It took me about hour and thirty minutes to place the logo on to the actual color paring. Ruffly it me about in total of four hours and thirty minutes.

Free-Study – Paired Color Identities with Simultaneous Contrast

Step 1 – Color Research Process.

Step 2 – Color Mockups

Step 3 – Icon Research Process

Step 4/5: Icon Mockup / Final Execution / Presentation

Thoughts
This Part of this project was fun to create. We had to chose a color that represents our partners personalities and then create an icon that would represent them while also creating Simulated contrast.

Time – This took about 4 hours.

Research on Color

I picked red as the color that would represent Jay. The most emotionally intense color. It gets noticed.

In first image, its like a reflection of a image however the colors are different. On the left, it gives a feeling of cool, and on the right, its the opposite, it feels warm. In the second image, I see that the trees have same color, but the tree on left side, it appears more gray, and the tree on right side, it appears more green because of the surrounding color.

Project #5: Color Interaction Parings: Phase 2

Group 1 – Achromatic gray studies

colorinteractions_value

For group 1, I learned how to make the two achromatic gray small square that in same value look different by vary the value of the large square. It took me about 15 minutes to finish.

Group 2 – Shifting value (with color)

For group 2, I changed the value of the large square but keet its color. It alters the perceived value of the two small squares that in same color. It took me about 15 minutes to finish.

Group 3 – Shifting hue, but not value

For group 3, I learned how to make different colors have the same value. I chose one hue as my two small squares’ color and make this one color appear as two by varying the color of my two large squares. It took me about 20 minutes to finish.

Group 4 – Shifting hue and value

For group 4, I learned how to shift both hue and value of my two large squares to make my two small squares that in same color appear as two. It took me about 15 minutes to finish.

Color Interaction Parings: Phase 2

Group 1 – Achromatic gray studies

When I learned on this group, I thought this was easy to create studies, because it was gray color. I didn’t have to think a lot of the value or hue.

Took about 10 minutes.

Group 2 – Shifting value (with color)

This group 2 was a little difficult than group 1 because of the value options. I had to try many times to make it perfectly.

Took about 15 minutes, because I had to double check the color.

Group 3 – Shifting hue, but not value

Group 3 was easy to create. I learned how to using two color but had the same value, then saw a difference in the middle square, to create the misconception.

Took about 10 minutes

Group 4 – Shifting hue and value

When I knew how to create the group 3, then group 4 will more easily. Just combine group 1-3 knowledge to create.

Took about 10 minutes.

Group 5 – Extra Credit

This group was difficult because I had to make sure the color of the middle squares look the same one.

This took about 20 minutes

Color Interaction Parings: Phase 2

Group 1: For this study, I learned how to use different shades of grays to change the color of the middle square. The squares in the middle are the same color but the surrounding color makes it appear as though it’s a different color. It took 20 minutes to complete.

Group 2: For this study, I learned how to keep the color of the larger squares but change the value. The squares in the middle are the same color but with the change in value within the surrounding color it changes the appearance of the square in the middle. It took 20 minutes to complete.

Group 3: For this study, I learned how to make different colors have the same value. The squares in the middle are the same color but the surrounding color make the little squares appear as if they have the same hue as the surrounding color. It took 35 minutes to complete.

Group 4: For this study, I learned how to change the appearance of the middle squares with different hues and different values. It took 35 minutes to complete.

Project #5: Color Interaction Parings: Phase 2

Group 1 – Achromatic gray studies

In group one, I think its the most easy part of this phase. All I’m doing is pick two different value colors to make center color look like they have different value, in fact, they have exactly same value.

Time took 10 minutes.

Group 2 – Shifting value (with color)

Group two is also kind of easy. I picked a color and change the value of the color to support the center color look different in value.

Time took 10 minutes.

Group 3 – Shifting hue, but not value

In group three, it did challenge me a little. I have to find two different color and make them have same value, and they have to support the center color look like they have different value.

Time took 20 minutes.

Group 4 – Shifting hue and value

Group four is very similar to group three, the only different part is I can change the value of the two color.

Time took 10 minutes.

Group 5 – Extra Credit

Group five is similar to group four, however group four end up with center color looks like has different value, and group five is to change the value of center color to make them look like exactly same, in fact the value are different.

Time took 20 minutes.
