COM 1113 Blog Post 6
In this week's blog post, we were told to photograph something with a variety of contrasting colors, and use those colors to create swatches of different hues and nameplates in inDesign.
For my subject, I chose to photograph Dale Earnhardt's racecar from the 2000 NASCAR All-Star Race. This car is on display at the Richard Childress Racing Museum in Welcome, North Carolina. I chose to photograph this car in particular because of the many colors on its paint scheme.
For my color swatches, I chose the majenta, orange, and green colors found in the racecar's paint scheme. I then adjusted the amount of whiteness in their hues to 50% and to 25%.
For the name plates, I inserted my name, and my title at the NASCAR news website I write for. For each element, I used a differing color from the swatch that came from the original picture of the racecar.
This is just a small sampling of the many ways different colors can be found on inDesign, I hope you enjoyed this post!
