Product Description

Getting Colour Right is a comprehensive guide to the use and control of colour in print, web and multimedia design and digital photography.

Beginning with a section on colour theory as it applies to digital production processes, the book explains the effects of different light sources, colour temperature, colour wheels and colour gamut before moving on to monitor display issues, digital image enhancement techniques, and conventional and digital output for print.

A detailed look at both computer hardware and image-editing software is included, and a workshop section discusses common colour problems such as skin tones, and specific concerns relating to landscapes, wildlife, interiors, fashion, food, still life, events and archived photographs and digital images.

A complete guide to digital colour enhancement and correction techniques.

Common problems identified and solved with step-by-step correction workthroughs.

Every subject area explored and specific, detailed recommendations given.
