Let's add Some Color

For the second project for Visual Journalism at Columbia College Chicago, the students would apply warm and cool colors to their previous black and white design.

Since it is for online the designer has to use RGB light scale, which makes the colors by reflecting light.

WARM COLORS

The dark toned colors still draw the viewer's attention to the center like in the black and white piece, but it brings unity to all the other pieces in the design.

COOL COLORS

Yellow, orange and red are the warm colors that obviously makes the viewer feel warm and closeness to the piece. Blue, green and magenta are the cool colors that reminds the viewer of a cold feeling.
