Jan 22, 2008 9:46 AM

Pantone (Carlstadt, NJ) and X-Rite Inc. (Grand Rapids, MI) have announced the 2008 release of the company’s “Color Control Freak” seminar. With a revised curriculum, Color Control Freak 08 offers an in-depth understanding of color, its value in the design process, and techniques for proper reproduction.

The one-day interactive seminar is sponsored by Pantone, HP, Eizo and X-Rite. Industry experts teach attendees basics in color trends and psychology as well as how to collect, build and specify color that remains consistent from screen to print. Participants walk through a study of color psychology, emerging trends and the 2008 color of the year. They learn tips and techniques for coaching their clients through their client’s color preferences, ensuring better communication.

Topics:

  • Experience the latest color trends in design and fashion.
  • Understand the psychology behind color to maximize your design’s impact.
  • Use palette-building software tools to select and build reproducible color palettes.
  • Work with different color systems (RGB, CMYK and spot colors).
  • Better screen to print color matching.
  • Use monitor calibration to improve color editing of both created and captured graphics.
  • Use in-house printers for accurate prints and proofs.
  • Color management setup in Adobe CS2 and CS3.
