DIGITAL COLOUR (Tic subtractive and additive)
The one we usually work at class is this one:
- When we talk about SUBTRACTIVE COLOR MIXING, we talk about PIGMENT.
- The primary colors are: CMY (Cyan, Magenta and Yellow).
- When we mix them we have BLACK.
- This is what happens when we mix primary subtractive colours using markers, pencil colours, watercolor...
But we also have this one:
- When we talk about ADDITIVE COLOR MIXING, we talk about LIGHT.
- The primary colors are: RGB (Red, Green and Blue).
- When we mix them we have WHITE.
- This is what happens when we mix primary additive colours using light.
Here you can see the difference:
ADDITIVE COLOR MIXING - LIGHT: SUBTRACTIVE COLOR MIXING - PIGMENT:
Now I want you to work with this two different types of colour mixing in a digital way.
You will have to make 2 activities and send me the images through the next Padlet.
Read this information to learn how to capture you work in order to send it to me.
1) First of all, we are going to work with SUBTRACTIVE COLOR MIXING, with COMPLEMENTARY colours. Remember they are opposite on the wheel:
ACTIVITY 1:
- This is the first activity you have to make using digital tools.
- You can play digitally with different tools. There are games and different information about warm and cool colours, design...
- Color Scheme Designer. Working with warm and colod colors, opposite ones... and colorblind.
- Color Palette Generator. Enter the URL of an image to get a color palette that matches the image. This is useful for coming up with a website color palette that matches a key image a client wants.
2) Secondly, we are going to work with ADDITIVE COLOR MIXING, with LIGHT colours.
This is a course I made, in order to learn more about the additive color mixing. Look how much you can play with the light:
Now you are also going to play with the light using Light Labs digital tools.
Look at this example. Using the primary light colours, I moved the tools to create the mixture: the white color. Look at what happens with the shadows and mixtures:
- This is the second activity you have to make using digital tools, to work with light as I explained above.
- Open the tool and make the activity: click here.
- Try to be creative and build your own ambient.
- When you finish it, capture the image and send me through email. You can learn how to capture the image here.
- You have more tools to play with light and shadows:
- Light lab. To play on a scene, playing with different lights and shadows.
- Gobo lab. To play with different shadow forms using gobos.
- When you finish it, capture the image (or images) and send me through the next Padlet. You can learn how to capture the image here.

COLOUR - Mind map
There is a video on Disney + I recomend you to watch:
- If you have Disney +, go to the search button and write 'brain games'. Then go to the 3th season and watch the 2nd chapter called "A todo color".
Now we are going to start working with COLOUR (you can also write it like COLOR).
First of all, I want you to learn what a VISUAL MAP (mapa visual) or MIND MAP is. Later we will work with some online aplications to work with color digital y and then de will apply on another project.
Here you can see a mind map, explaining why it is a good idea to make them:
![]() |
| Image from here |
*Visual thinking video.
You can also use them to study other subjects! It is very visual and helps you to organice the ideas. You can be as creative as you want. Remember that humans remember much better images, maps, photos... than words.
Now, we continue with COLOUR.
To begin with, listen to these two songs about colour:
Read the next ideas about colour:
![]() |
| Mind map from Laura M. |
- You have to resume the info you have in this image (to make a mind map), look for the words you don't know:
- It has to be IN ENGLISH (look for the words you don't know in Google)
- Make your OWN MIND MAP on a new bloc page (horizontal). You can use 2 pages to make the map bigger (DIN A 3), pasting them with cellotape on the back.
- Don't copy the example above, I will check that.
- It has to be as CREATIVE as you can.
- Add as many IMAGES/ICONS as you can, to make it more visual, with colours, arrows, lines...
- Don't forget to write, with parallel lines, your name, initial of your surname and group.
