3. You have a blue ball and walk into a room lit with a red light. What color is the ball while in the room? w g r b c y m

4. Color Models other than RGB CMYK –cyan –magenta –yellow –key (black) HSV, HSB, HSL –Hue –Saturation –value. brightness, lightness

5. Colored light shining on a white surface One red light, one blue light and one green light… Arranged to overlap… Creating Cyan, Magenta and Yellow and… White w g r b c y m

6. Cyan = Green + Blue Cyan = White - Red Yellow = Red + Green Yellow = White - Blue Magenta = Red + Blue Magenta = White - Green This color model can be used as an Additive model appropriate for use with light This color model can also be used as a Subtractive model appropriate for use with ink and paint... things that absorb light w g r b c y m White = Red + Green + Blue

7. white paper cyan ink magenta ink white light removes green removes red white light removes green removes red leaving blue light magenta leaving light magenta leaving light cyan leaving light

8. CMYK model Cyan Magenta Yellow Key (black) –While you should be able to make black by mixing Cyan, Magenta and Yellow… –Paint (and ink) is not perfect Subtractive model Used by the printing industry

9. HSV model Another way of looking at color Hue –The color described as degrees from red Saturation –How pale the color is –Think of it as adding white to the color Brightness –How intense the color is –Thinks of it as adding black to the color

10. Adjusting the Hue

14. Adjusting the Saturation

15. Adjusting the Value

16. Full-On Red in RGB model

17. Full-On Green in RGB model

18. Full-On Blue in RGB model

19. The transition from B&W to Color TV B&W just needs intensity changes to make white-gray-black –intensity varies as the electron beam is drawn across the screen Color is RGB+Intensity for each –could transmit each color with its intensity and it would work for color tv but –can’t use the same signal model for color because the B&W tv’s wouldn’t work –Solution: Transmit the necessary color information during the retrace. –Color is transmitted as luminance and two colors –B&W tv’s simply ignore it because the beam is off

20. RGB BBB BBB BBB GGG GGG GGG RRR RRR RRR Allows the use of the brightness and contrast of each individual color to be manipulated using levels and curves Allows a very fine level of control Very time consuming Color balance, hue and saturation adjustments on the whole image is a shortcut RGB Channels
