FEDERATION SQUARE "FIRE" SELECTION

I received this email from Jenny regarding your films. Congratulations to Mia, Madeline and Seb.

Students from past Chisholm IDM/ V. Art classes were also selected including Kosar, Raneth and Yvonne.

Unfortunately, The final dvd that FEd square put together had problems with two pieces: Madeline and Seb. These two will be taken out of Fed screening and shown later in the month at Dandenong Drum Theatre and Thomas street. Can Seb and Madeline please provide a Quicktime of these films asap.

David.

Dear all,

I just wanted to update you on the progress being made with the short films submitted for inclusion in the Nocturnal (winter arts program) in Dandenong and concurrently as part of The Light in Winter at Fed Sq.

There was an initial selection process conducted here in Greater Dandenong before the films were submitted for a second selection process at Fed Sq.

The outcome is that the following films have been selected to be screened in June 2011 at the following locations, as part of 'The Light in Winter at Fed Sq' and Dandenong's 'Nocturnal' winter arts program;
randomly on screens throughout Fed Sq including the big screen
nightly at Thomas Street projection space (250 Thomas Street Dandenong)
nightly at Drum Theatre (East facing window in Walker Street Dandenong)

Yvonne Picot
Kosar Majani
Yukiko Michishita

If you could assist with advising the artists of their successful selection I would be grateful. They are named participating artists in the Dandenong Nocturnal Night Walk catalogue and I can gladly forward copies to each person.

Colour Theory

Today we printed some HDR images. Worked on the tower and researched colour theory.

Itten's Color Theory
Color Contrasts
There are seven different kinds of contrasts.

1. Contrast of Hue
2. Light-Dark Contrast
3. Cold-Warm Contrast
4. Complementary Contrast
5. Simultaneous Contrast
6. Contrast of Saturation
7. Contrast of Extension

Keep in mind that no piece of artwork makes use of only one type of contrast. However one type is usually dominates the piece.

Contrast of Hue
A Hue colour is a pure colour. The further on the colour wheel colours are situated the greater the contrast.

Light Dark Contrast
Light dark contrast is contrast between light values and dark values.

"Chiaroscura"

Cold-Warm Contrast
Cold-warm contrast refers to the contrast between cool and warm colors. Cools colours consist of blue, green and purple. Warm colours consist of red, orange and yellow.

Complimentary Contrast
Complimentary Contrast refers to the contrast between complimentary (opposite) colours. Complimentary colors are those that are directly opposite to each other on the color wheel.

Simultaneous Contrast
It is the contrast between two colours that are almost complimentary, but not exactly. It is contrast between a colour and another colour that is to the right of left of its compliment.


Contrast of Saturation
The term refers to the contrast between pure intense colours and dull diluted or grayed colours. Dull colors would appear to be duller when it is placed next to pure intense colours, and pure intense colors would appear move vivid when it is next to a dull colour.

Contrast of Extension
Different amounts of one colour are needed to balance another.
The contrast of extension is used to refer to contrast between the proportion of one area of colour to another.
