Graphic Design Theory - Color & Contrast
Use Color And Contrast Masterfully In Your Design Projects
What you'll learn
Intuitively know which combination of colors or harmony would work best for your composition.
Color terms (value, hue, chrome, tint, shade, saturation - what they mean and how they impact your designs?)
Color harmonies (complementary, split complementary, triad, tetradic, analogous, monochromatic, achromatic)
Combining colors (primary, secondary, tertiary, dominant, highlight, accent, etc.)
Understand how we perceive colors and how they affect us (social and cultural meanings of colors).
Use contrast masterfully to control visual hierarchy and create effective designs.
Types of contrast (scale, value, vibrancy, complexity, texture, shape, etc.)
Become fluent in visual communication and learn how to make engaging, clear and effective compositions.
Understand how people react to visuals (what grabs their attention and what will motivate them to buy or make a decision).
Boost your confidence by mastering how to analyze designs and ask the right questions when judging your own compositions.
Learn the language of design in order to communicate with clients, printers, developers and other creative professionals.
Requirements
You don't need any prerequisite skill in design software or any experience in graphic design.
You can still benefit from the course with moderate color deficiency.

I was fortunate to teach more than a 100.000 students worldwide and was voted as one of the 5 best Adobe instructors of the World. Here in Udemy, some of my courses are all time best sellers and are considered the best in their category. The challenge of teaching Design Theory is that everything is related, and I have a very effective and unique approach to explore this amazing subject in an enjoyable, easy to understand manner, that will help you to build deep understanding in it fast.Come, join me on this exciting journey, let's explore the magic of color and contrast in Graphic Design together!Patrik: "I have Martin's Photoshop and Illustrator training (both excellent), so I had an idea of what to expect with this course. I have long hoped/searched for a solid course on the elements of design, similar to what I learned in university many (many) years ago. This course, Graphic Design Theory, Color & Contrast, is a step in the right direction. It cleared some cobwebs and I learned a few new things as well. I look forward to seeing more chapters added to the Graphic Design Theory catalogue."
