Color Theory/ Color Harmony

Color Theory

-a body of practical guidance to color mixing and the visual effects of a specific color combination. 

By using bright colors/color schemes it attracts readers eye. If there is a sale for something advertised in a magazine using bright colors would be a good idea because it would be something that would catch the viewers eyes.


Color Harmony

-is something that is pleasing to the eye. It engages the viewer and it creates an inner sense of order, a balance in the visual experience. When something is not harmonious, it's either boring or chaotic.

Color Harmony plays a big part in whether a person picks up a magazine. If the color scheme is boring or chaotic it can turn away potential costumers. By having a harmonious color scheme views are enticed by the magazine. 

By keeping both of these things in mind creating an entertaining and visually appealing magazine will be easy. Color can be the factor in which people read your magazine and of course in real life that's all you want.
