yo what is up people welcome back to Satori graphics and today I've got a
real big treat for you all because I'm gonna share some resources they're gonna
be so useful to use a graphic designer all based around the use of color oh
yeah and also did I mention they're totally free and speaking of free
resources let's quickly hear from today's sponsor so another awesome
resource for learning essential skills as a graphic designer is Skillshare now
Skillshare is a community of creators that holds over 25,000 classes on design
business and other useful topics and regarding graphic design skills share
boasts a wide selection of courses by professionals in their respective fields
you can learn more about skill share and how to get two months totally for free
later in today's video the first resource was created by the reverse
image service TinEye it's going to break down the image in terms of color which
is perfect for creating color palettes for your next graphic design so you can
either upload an image directly or you can type in a URL but once you have the
image into its service you're then gonna see this color chart here which dictates
just how much of each color is used on your image you can also choose to remove
the background for the really really neat thing here is that you are given
the hex color codes percentages and even the name of each color
you can then click a color and you're directed to an imagery that utilizes
that very same color but yeah this resource is so so handy for sampling an
image and then finding or creating a color scheme directly from the image
this service is linked down below and so are the other four features that are
coming up in today's video so next we have spy color which gives you the most
amount of information of any color that I've actually seen on the internet you
literally you're gonna have tons and tons of info on any color you choose you
can type in a CMYK color hex color code and so forth but for demonstration
purposes let's try out an RGB color you then find below loads and loads of
useful information on your color there is a detailed description of our green
hue here as well as various different hex color codes not only that but you
also have the HSL HSV and XYZ and so much more information that you can use
relating back to your color but really crucially at the very bottom you will
notice that there are different color schemes utilizing your chosen color this
resource is super useful and I do actually have this one bookmarked as I
do with a few other of today's editions but for the next resource we're gonna
have a little bit of fun whilst learning to
so this is our color matching game where you have a set amount of time to try and
match up the right color now it does get progressively more difficult as you pass
through the six levels and you can visualize how different color schemes
fit into the color wheel whilst having some fun doing so you I gave this game
an entire playthrough and my final score was 8.8 and I'm not sure if that's good
or bad but just try it for yourself and if you do finish it let me know what
you scored down in the comment section below
now the penultimate color resource that you can for sure benefit from as a
graphic designer is color hunts this is almost like a mini social media for a
color palates well kind of but yeah there are so many neat and cool color
palettes that I hear for you to browse over and you can also enter into the
categories here for example choosing popular this red to purple color palette
really looks very interesting to me and I feel this website just inspires me so
much simply by viewing color palettes
you can also give some search terms in the top right here so for example dark
or bright now I really do like this layout and the functionality of this
resource but do let me know what you think down below lastly today a heavy
hitter that has recently been updated and that is Adobe color notice before
you do have a large selection of color schemes off to the left which allow you
to make quick and easy color groups so for example maybe I want to make a
monochromatic scheme for my next graphic design now one thing I didn't previously
notice on a DB color is the trend section here you can find the color
palettes influenced by specific sectors
so for example fashion or illustration now this for me is really really neat
and I do love the logic behind it and hey also this red color scheme here is a
lot like the one we viewed earlier in the previous resource but yet do let me
know what you think of all of the color schemes and the color resources in
today's video so like I mentioned today I'm offering you the chance of receiving
two months access to Skillshare totally for free if you do use my link down in
the description box below even without this offer of two three months

fields so do be sure to check out Skillshare
