Join Ian Robinson for an in-depth discussion in this video Exploring the use of color in motion graphics, part of Motion: Principles of Motion Graphics.
Now this video is going to be kind of different, because I am going to play the…role of your color therapist.…As we go through this animation, I want you to look at each color and really…think to yourself, how does this make me feel?…Now I know it sounds kind of corny, but they're plenty of professional sports teams…out there that paint their locker rooms different colors because it…incites different kinds of emotions.…So let's go through some of these colors so we can generally talk about how we feel.…So this first color, yellow.…It's pretty straightforward.…
It's kind of like the sun.…It's bright, happy, and sunshiny.…Sometimes it's so bright it kind of drives people a little batty.…But generally it's a good color for the morning and daylight and…different things like that.…So for me whenever I see orange, most of the time it makes me think of the sunset.…And it's a little calming.…It's one of the more calm warm colors out there.…It's a perfect color if you're not quite sure exactly what level of excitement…
