  2. Color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature

    The color temperature (as well as the correlated color temperature defined above) may differ largely from the effective temperature given by the radiative flux of the stellar surface. For example, the color temperature of an A0V star is about 15000 K compared to an effective temperature of about 9500 K. [27]

  3. Correlated color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlated_color_temperature

    Priest proposed to use "the scale of temperature as a scale for arranging the chromaticities of the several illuminants in a serial order". Over the next few years, Judd published three more significant papers: The first verified the findings of Priest, [7] Davis, [8] and Judd, [9] with a paper on sensitivity to change in color temperature. [11]

  4. Color correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_correction

    Color correction is a process used in stage lighting, photography, television, cinematography, and other disciplines, which uses color gels, or filters, to alter the overall color of the light. Typically the light color is measured on a scale known as color temperature , as well as along a green – magenta axis orthogonal to the color ...

  5. Light in painting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_in_painting

    Port with the disembarkation of Cleopatra in Tarsus (1642), by Claude Lorrain, Musée du Louvre, Paris. Light in painting fulfills several objectives, both plastic and aesthetic: on the one hand, it is a fundamental factor in the technical representation of the work, since its presence determines the vision of the projected image, as it affects certain values such as color, texture and volume ...

  6. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    Color theory, or more specifically traditional color theory, is the historical body of knowledge describing the behavior of colors, namely in color mixing, color contrast effects, color harmony, color schemes and color symbolism. [1] Modern color theory is generally referred to as Color science.

  7. Tint, shade and tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tint,_shade_and_tone

    In color theory, a tint is a mixture of a color with white, which increases lightness, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting color mixture's relative saturation. A tone is produced either by mixing a color with gray, or by both tinting and shading. [1]

  8. Mired - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mired

    In photography, mireds are used to indicate the color temperature shift provided by a filter or gel for a given film and light source. For instance, to use daylight film (5700 K) to take a photograph under a tungsten light source (3200 K) without introducing a color cast , one would need a corrective filter or gel providing a mired shift

  9. Color symbolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_symbolism

    Color symbolism in art, literature, and anthropology is the use of color as a symbol in various cultures and in storytelling. There is great diversity in the use of colors and their associations between cultures [ 1 ] and even within the same culture in different time periods. [ 2 ]
