1. Colour Theories

2. Additive Color Theory
The rules that regulate what colours are produced when 2 or more colours are added together.
Red, green and blue are the primary colours in this theory.
If you add 2 primary colours together, you get a secondary colour

3. ALL 3 COLOURS TOGETHER = WHITE
Additive Color Theory
Red + Green = Yellow
Red + Blue = Magenta
Green + Blue = Cyan
ALL 3 COLOURS TOGETHER = WHITE

5. Additive Color Theory
Used on a daily basis in Televisions and computer monitors
Every pixel, no matter what colour, is a combination of Red, Blue and Green in varying proportions.

6. Subtractive Color Theory
Light is filtered or absorbed to create a new colour.
The colour that we see depends on what parts are not absorbed (are reflected)
Used everyday in colour printers

7. Subtractive Color Theory
Magenta + Cyan = Blue
Magenta + Yellow= Red
