To begin this project I have been investigating different styles of photography that I can use and have discovered that cinematic colour grading has really caught my eye as can really draw on emotions and also allows the images to be unique in their design. I have been really focusing on the technique of colour grading and understanding colour itself and looking into colour modes and theories using saturation and value to give different photographic gradings. Understanding the colour wheel can allow you to use different forms of colour harmony such as monochromatics, analagous, triadic colours, complementary, split comoplimentary and double complimentary grades within your images and can create emotional feelings. I am laid up after a proceedure so I am working on images I have taken previously to practice these skills. I am enjoying really learning about the meaning behind colour and think it will help me in my editing skills. I have learned that drawing the eye through colour can really walk the viewer through an image. I will play around with these techniques and continue to learn more to improve my skills.
