Basics of colour - Hue

A hue is based on a colour theory that all colours come from the three main colours: Red, yellow and blue. All colours come from a mixture of these colours. The word hue describes the spectrum on a colour wheel.

The colour wheel is a clear illustration of colours which shows the relationship of primary, secondary and complimentary colour.

It also can be used to describe a family of colour, such as 'sky hue' or 'green hue' etc.

Furthermore we have been introduced to the practice of colour scripts. A colour script is produced during pre-production part of a film. It displays how and what colours will be used through the films in different shots. Shows the specific limits to the colour palette.
