    I noticed you’re using a large, cool, low, chroma background, and small, warm, high chroma wardrobe. Well done, Renaissance videographer.

    Hello I'm Stephen Bauman and in this video I'm just going to speak and you're going to love it! The color stuff is cool too (and/or warm)

    Thanks Stephen! Nice to see the traditional color theory taught clearly and with illustrations. Some problems appear, when you mix different color fields like psychological properties with wavelengths, the concepts don't match 100%. Also, when talking about color "mixing" what is understood is probably the mixing of paint, and these work very differently compared to mixing ligh mixtures, where blue mixed with yellow typically mix to white compared to green when mixing paint. This is crudely understood as additive and subtractive color mixing, and they are not really possible to unite precisely in one system for obvious reasons (because they make rules for totally different kinds of mixing principles). I believe in mixing color theories from different fields and use for example the many psychological effects in "color illusion images" in painting, photography and computer graphics, or in mixed arts for short. Deeper understanding of color in different fields only give us more freedom in using color in the best possible way.
