Synopsis

Color Choreography makes reference to the proficient manipulation of color harmonies. The truly effective designer becomes the grand choreographer of color's operatic emotional variances and mood constructs. Once learned, the colorist's savvy becomes an all important element of influence within any career, even beyond the more obvious fields of design and art. Color Choreography is comprehensive in its approach to educating students of color theory - blending the rich history of color traditions into 21st century concepts. Its discourse on the attributes of key color elements takes students on a journey of investigations into the mysteries of color. The physical and psychological condition of the human experience can be realized and interpreted through this choreography of color.
