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!
@@patkay Geez. You are using all the SAT words today, it sounds like you swallowed a thesaurus. You could say experimental or trial and error instead of heuristics.
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.
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!
"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.
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.
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.
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.
@@Jayden-tq6to haha.. thank you Jaden. I wonder if you'd say that to me when I was saving your life in the emergency department. Go back and add some more typing click videos and post more mean comments and I'll be sure to watch them after I get out of my next trauma call. I may be a boomer to you but to my patients I am much more.
@@stevenboesky6692 Fun fact: I can respect your occupation while thinking your comment is an unnecessary attempt on undervaluing other content creators and their efforts to explain things in a maybe more elaborate way lol
Wow. I just feel like I learned a whole year of classes in 12 mins. When the video ended I literally said "wow. that was so helpful" thank you so much for posting these amazing videos, you are an amazing teacher, and I can't wait to go take pictures of blue this week :)
I post processed a snapshot -- my brother in law had the coolest hunting/fishing table. its super low and just fit so perfectly into the ground by this twisted tree all but the roots were dug around. I muted into B/W like The Pond -- thats a little prework before this video my next adventure being on Number 4 is to focus on some red. I have targets in the yard and all around my locays. I don't even have a real camera yet this is exciting. Targeting the 5DS for some ASMR Photo walks with a big mic system and my goPro 11 since my phone is minimal on camera will use the GoPro Raws and LRC for "Practice with your phone, save for camera" phase!!! Thank you so much for these great and recommended rightfully so all over Photog spaces on socials courses!
Hue Tint, tone, shade Saturation- muted or more saturation. Color temperature- warm and cool. Digital-RGB, real workd colors- CYMK Luminosity - adding white to britghten but decrease saturation Color Psychology Color harmony- Analogous, monochromatic, complimentary. Why are u shooting what u are shooting and how will color help? Spend time shooting one color for 10 days.
Wow, the video is incredible. I had a lot of photography and design courses in architecture and media university and never learned those principles and hacks!! Great!
I couldn't put together why your scenery was a balance of white, blue, and orange until you explained your personal preference. Thank you for demonstrating artistic sensibilities.
Thank you! Ive been in a creative block lately im glad i found this! Im going to do that assignment this week! Also I love color theory and learned alot! Much love 📸
Excellent and amazingly comprehensive walk through of colour theory - a topic of my interest for years. You explained so simple yet accurate. I've been studying the Colour Circle of Goethe, and I thoroughly liked your definitions of the distinction between objectivity and subjectivity.
Good stuff. A "compliment", with an "i" is what you say when you like someone's sweater. "Complement" with an "e" is what you say when the sweater goes with the pants. It "completes" the look. Colors opposite on the color wheel are "complementary".
I have had this on my watch list for MONTHS. I finally got to it and I’m so glad I did. I’m gonna try to use Adobe color and pick some colors to photograph like you said. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your keenness and knowledge of the spectrum of aspects of photography Pat. You truly are a teacher with genuine interest in helping others grow. And you are very good at it. Thanks again.
The amount of information you packed in just 12 minutes is outstanding. I'm really appreciating this series.
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!

How you mix these will determine whether you get the effect you want or not.
Go make something that matters everyone ‼️ thanks for the extra push Pat.

I feel like i just watched the most important video of my photogrpahy life. Thanks a million.
Loved the video. Simple, crisp & to the point. The assignment is perfect :)
As a photographer myself, I really appreciate the way you explained colour theory. Love it!
These visual pattern videos really stand out in the RUclips photo-sphere. Very inspirational
Love the example of waiting for someone wearing green! Definitely puts the assignment in perspective. I'm going to have to try!
This video is incredibly well laid out and extremely helpful. Actionable steps are a HUGE bonus - thank you 🙏🏼
Man, you are a fantastically competent instructor. Thanks for sharing.
Discovering ur channel is probs the highlight of my year so far ;)
knew absolutely nothing about colour theory before this video. great, clear and easy to understand video!
This is pure quality! I believe that 12.04 mins of this clip took hours and hours to prepare it.
What an interesting YT channel! You are a very good instructor. I love to watch your videos! Thanks for that.
That color wheel is a helpful resource. Thanks for telling us about it.
Wow, the video is incredible. I had a lot of photography and design courses in architecture and media university and never learned those principles and hacks!! Great!
I never miss your videos. Thank you so much Pat!

Thank you for demonstrating artistic sensibilities.
Wow! That analogous color thing is so cool!
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 is best part of RUclips.. Totally loved the information. Subscribed.
Much love from India.
You are a very good communicator. You take complex info and simplify it.
Great video for me understand the basics of color. I’ll take the challenge with the color assignment and thank you for the adobe color tool!
Thank you! You're really one of the very few people that made me listen without skipping any second
Like the way you break down & deliver information. Thank you
Thank you! Ive been in a creative block lately im glad i found this! Im going to do that assignment this week! Also I love color theory and learned alot!
Much love 📸
I have been looking for a video like this for YEARS. Thank you @PatKay, very well done. Earned a new sub 🥹
Just picked up photography and can't seem to process colour matters as efficently till this video of yours! Thank you! 🙏
This is one of the best videos I've seen about this subject, thank you so much for sharing this content!
Excellent and amazingly comprehensive walk through of colour theory - a topic of my interest for years. You explained so simple yet accurate. I've been studying the Colour Circle of Goethe, and I thoroughly liked your definitions of the distinction between objectivity and subjectivity.
HONESTLY, this is one of the best photography videos I've ever seen !!! thanks Pat for making great content
Most inspiring video on photography, that I've seen in a long time. Thank you! And excuse me - got to go shooting now.
Good stuff. A "compliment", with an "i" is what you say when you like someone's sweater. "Complement" with an "e" is what you say when the sweater goes with the pants. It "completes" the look. Colors opposite on the color wheel are "complementary".
Oh man, the things I wished I learned 40 years ago. Thanks Pat, for my very first understandable and pragmatic introduction to colour theory. Cheers.
So informative, so calm, amazing video, love it, all the best, and stay strong!
Great teachings, love the format, explanation and delivery
I just came across your channel. I enjoyed your content on color. I took a lot value from it.
