High there and this tutorial will get to look at illustrators colleagues.

00:04.860 --> 00:07.440
Basically what it does is we've got all these icons right.

00:07.440 --> 00:09.630
We've set one of the background colors.

00:09.760 --> 00:16.200
OK we want to use this consistently and we want to find colors that complemented all can work well together

00:16.260 --> 00:22.590
and we're going to do something like this with Culligan I'd helped us pick all of these colors and made

00:22.590 --> 00:25.110
sure they all kind of work together in color theory.

00:25.110 --> 00:26.760
All right let's go and check that out now.

00:26.760 --> 00:27.040
All right.

00:27.040 --> 00:32.340
So first up open up color guide dot eye from your exercise files doesn't really matter what file you

00:32.340 --> 00:32.970
are using.

00:33.150 --> 00:35.040
And what we want to do is these background colors.

00:35.040 --> 00:37.600
We just want to get a consistent color group together.

00:37.750 --> 00:39.920
OK and the color guy can be helpful for this.

00:39.930 --> 00:41.820
I don't use the color guy very often.

00:41.820 --> 00:45.780
I feel like there will be people out there that will will give me a kind of an understanding of it so

00:45.780 --> 00:46.750
that you might like.

00:46.810 --> 00:48.610
And that's the thing that's the ticket.

00:48.810 --> 00:49.530
OK so.

00:49.680 --> 00:52.670
And first of all I have nothing selected and pick a foreground color.

00:52.800 --> 00:55.140
OK so I've done my fill.

00:55.260 --> 00:57.270
And was going to pick anything.

00:57.330 --> 00:58.170
OK.

00:58.500 --> 01:02.100
Pick a color and then open up window and go to color guide.

01:02.300 --> 01:02.630
OK.

01:02.670 --> 01:06.780
And you might have to click on this depending on how you've kind of got started you Martha click on

01:06.780 --> 01:09.060
this to activate it to make it work.

01:09.190 --> 01:14.250
Now basically what it's done is depending on what you use last it's going to pick some harmony rules

01:14.280 --> 01:15.830
and it just means like how.

01:15.990 --> 01:17.800
How it kind of interacts with the color wheel.

01:17.880 --> 01:23.690
And in my case I'm using this one that says Rock complement Buell's might be starting off and say try

01:23.690 --> 01:25.360
it and gives you Cup colors.

01:25.440 --> 01:30.690
You use the you know kind of Tri-Ed methodology for the colors.

01:30.750 --> 01:34.650
So what you're not worried about is what these things are called.

01:34.700 --> 01:39.820
You're looking at colors and going oh I like the way that this interacts with my base color.

01:39.960 --> 01:41.580
OK so go through have a look.

01:41.610 --> 01:45.040
I'm going to use right complementary like that one.

01:45.040 --> 01:52.230
And these colors you just go through and say oh you and the one you use kind of going through and saying

01:52.320 --> 01:54.540
you know do I want to use these colors.

01:54.540 --> 02:02.610
You know I guess is as consistency to a group of inconsistent objects like icons will I find what I

02:02.610 --> 02:08.370
imagine them being really useful for is maybe picking say skin tone and then it gives you down the bottom

02:08.370 --> 02:12.480
here not just the colors but tints of that color be really useful kind of maybe if you will using a

02:12.480 --> 02:17.830
wakeup tablet and drawing and wanting to pick kind of versions and tins of that same color.

02:17.850 --> 02:21.960
If you want to get super nerdy about it you can click on this little color wheel here and it will show

02:21.960 --> 02:26.700
you because we're using the stock down here we're using right complimentary and it shows you on the

02:26.700 --> 02:28.430
color wheel what's actually happening.

02:28.650 --> 02:33.480
Say the tray which we talked about it shows you kind of how it's working right this kind of three way

02:33.480 --> 02:36.630
triangle on this color wheel that's going to be for this one.

02:36.630 --> 02:41.720
Just cause I don't use it very often but I really feel like I should be in this course because there'll

02:41.760 --> 02:44.400
be somebody out there that solves a lot of problems.

02:44.400 --> 02:44.930
All right.

02:44.940 --> 02:47.220
That was useful let's get into the next video.
