All of the options we need are in the Menu bar – File This will save our file in any folder we choose and in the official. We named our document File 1a. Notice the file type after our named document. This simply means that you can reopen this file in Affinity Designer and start where you left off.

Note: If on the other hand the file format was. Its file size will be significantly smaller than the. We use a separate external drive for all of our Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer files, which are in the af. This will open up its pop-out window where we have to choose into which file format we’ll export our document as see the 11 colorful thumbnails at the top of the below image.

Click on every file format icon at the top of the below screenshot and notice how the options change per file format clicked upon. We’ll go over these options now Since the JPEG file format is the most often used export format, we’ll use the above image as a reference. Here’s a list of the options with a brief explanation of what each does: Size see white line : This is the size of the file per its dimensions.

You can increase or decrease these amounts and the Estimated File Size see yellow line will increase or decrease in size. Preset see blue line : These are the quality presets you can use if you want to. There is a pop-out window where you can choose which quality level you want.

Quality see red line : This is a slider where you can set any level of quality export you want. Pay special attention to the Estimated File Size see yellow line as you adjust this slider. Remember, your file sizes may not be the same as ours because our shapes probably aren’t perfectly matched.

Area see pink line : This pop-out window allows you to choose which part or whole of the document you want to export.

You can choose to export the Whole Document and its file size will be according to the above screenshot But, if you chose Selection Only, the file size will be This is because you will only be exporting the selected blue triangle.

Practice: Go to the Layers Panel and click on the bottom layer so it’s active see below image. Now click on the pop-out window for Area and choose Selection Only. Notice how the file size is not the same as the blue triangle. The file size is only Note: We think it’s cool Affinity Designer gives us the option to export a document as a whole or as individual layers. This might allow a team of graphic designers to work on different parts of a design cooperatively.

For example, one person could do the detailed artwork while another works on the text. Finally, when you are done adjusting the file to be exported, press the Export button see three images above to export your file. When you press Export, this window will appear. Here you can rename your file like we did for the Save As Press Save to complete the export. Click on all of the buttons and drop-down windows to get a sense of your options. Play around with everything at least twice to start to get a feel for what you’re doing.

Thank you again for purchasing our book. We hope it really helps you. The next section of the book starts with a helpful lesson on how to properly use colors.

We added this section to this book because this information is not easily found on the internet in as a consolidated manner as we’ve created for you. We hope we’ve written it in an interesting and informative manner. If you’re already a pro, then maybe you can skip forward to the first step-by-step lesson after this unit. But, if you’re not a pro, and a beginner and don’t know what color theory is all about, then this lesson was written for you.

When we started four years ago, we had never been introduced to color theory. Maybe it’s the reason I wear mostly black and solid colors :. So, what is color theory and why is it important? Color theory is a method of using single or multiple colors in specific schemes to achieve a specific feeling or emotion. But there has been a huge amount of research done concerning the power of colors, that ‘theory’ may not be the right word anymore. Maybe you remember in primary school your art teacher introducing you to the color wheel.

It was divided by colors around a wheel with three Primary colors Red, Blue, Yellow and other colors in between these. This color wheel is what artists and graphic designers use to create awesome color combinations for such things like branding products, company logos like Nike and marketing materials. In Designer, we use different primary colors than Red, Blue and Yellow because we are creating software-based products for digital screens or for print media.

These colors are the primary colors for their respective color wheels. When we open new document, we have to choose a Web or Print template. When we start working on our document, we can see the color wheel in the Colors Studio. This color wheel is called an HSL color wheel. It’s called this, not because it’s a completely new color wheel, but because it properly shows the correct RGB or CMYK primary colors or Hues on its outside ring and has an adjustable inner triangle where we can change the Hue’s saturation and lightness values.

We’ll explain how to use the HSL color wheel in the next few paragraphs. As we were thinking about creating this book, this chapter on color theory was the most important part we wanted to teach.

We divided this lesson into two parts. The first part will teach you the basics of Color Theory and the second will teach you some technical parts of each color format that we think you need to know so you can be a more educated designer. If you ever get bored, you can simply turn the page : Part I – Color Theory In this lesson, we’ll teach you the basics of Color Theory as well as how to use the different Color Formats and their differing modes of color.

Basically, Color Theory is how to use colors properly. We think it has four parts: I. HSL Each color is made up of three parts: 1. Saturation: The degree of vibrancy of a Hue also called Tone.

Lightness: How light or dark a Hue is Affinity calls this Luminosity. Saturation is made up of Tone middle line. Please take a look at the graphic below that we created for you.

We suggest you try your best to become completely familiar with this image and how the HSL color wheel works. As we said in the introduction, the color format is CMYK. So, the colors or more formally ‘Hues’ you see on the outside ring are made up of the three primaries: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow. The colors next to these are secondary and tertiary colors. So, let’s now look at this color wheel.

The secondary color Red is selected. We know this because the white-circled node on the outside ring is where Red is located 1. Now, we have the option of making the Red color less saturated 2 , darker 4 , or brighter 3, 5. We’ve listed these numbers also like this: 1.

Hues – the outside ring. Saturation Tone – move inner node towards left side desaturates a Hue. Lightness – move inner node up or down lightens or darkens a Hue. Shade – move inner node towards black darkens a Hue. Tint – move inner node towards white lightens a Hue. Hue vs. Color A Hue is a color in its purest form.

Look at this screenshot of the Color Sliders for Cyan. A Color is a variance of a Hue. Look at this screenshot of a darker shade of Cyan. It is not Cyan, but a color close to Cyan.

Notice its different color values see yellow rectangle. Note: Practically speaking, everyone uses Color and not so much Hue. Knowing the difference is important, but not necessary to be a pro graphic designer.

The difference between these two is determined by the end-use of the creative process. This can be a confusing answer for beginners. To answer this is to think about what happens when the colors are combined together.

RGB is considered an additive color process because it uses light as color and as you add more colors together, they get brighter and eventually combine to make white. This combination of light makes it possible to create approximately These different possible colors are called its ‘gamut’. We’ll explain more about this in the next section.

CMYK is considered a subtractive color process because it uses a physical material pigment or ink to create color. When you add one pigment to another light is absorbed thus making the combined colors darker instead of brighter. Its gamut is about half the range as RGB. The smaller gamut therefore produces less vibrant colors. Note: Notice how the RGB colors start on a black background.

This is to mimic a computer’s screen. The CMYK colors start on a white background, to mimic paper. Question: Do you know why the last letter for this color format is K and not B for Black?

When all three primary colors Cyan, Magenta, Yellow are combined, they don’t produce pure black, but an almost black or Key. Therefore, a separate black color is needed to complete this gamut.

Think of the cartridges in a color printer: It uses four color cartridges for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black sometimes two black cartridges. Let’s now talk about the CMYK color wheel with its specific parts and how to arrange these parts and colors into useful color combinations. The CMYK color wheel has three main parts: 1. There are three color groups: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary 2. Colors can be warm or cool. Primary colors are Hues or “pure” colors.

Secondary colors are made from mixing two primary colors. These are Indigo, Green, Red. Tertiary colors are made from mixing one primary and one secondary color.

K or black is added to help the darkest combined colors go to black. The combination of all the colors does not create black. So, black is a needed addition to finish this color space’s gamut of colors. Note: The traditional color wheel we all learned in primary school has Red, Blue, and Yellow as its primary colors. These wheels use different primary colors because they are specific to the type of media their colors will be seen on. If you accidently use a RGB color wheel for a print media document, the colors when you go to print them will not look as you see them on your screen and your client will not be a happy camper.

Color Schemes Knowing how to group colors to create aesthetically pleasing combinations is a skill you need to know how to utilize in order to be able to do your best work in Designer. Some designers use the term ‘Color Harmony’ when talking about combining different colors in their works. This idea of harmony makes sense when you see colors that don’t belong together in a pattern.

It really is quite poor taste of colors. In this lesson, we’ll cover the six most-used color schemes using the CMYK color wheel as a guide. There are more, but these six are the ones we’ve seen used the most often. The six color schemes are: 1. Monochromatic 2. Analogous Complimentary Triadic Double Complementary Tetradic Achromatic Note: Please do your own online study of the different color schemes and all of their meanings and usages. The more you study this subject matter the faster you’ll be able to master using these color schemes.

There are more than these six we’ve covered. Monochromatic color schemes are made up of a single Hue with varying tints, tones, or shades. This image here shows you the options you could use if you chose blue as the base color.

This color scheme is easy on the eyes and is popular among minimalists. Analogous color schemes are made up of three colors that are next to each other on a color wheel. This image below shows you one such combination of hues. This color scheme is often found in nature and is pleasing to the eyes. It creates a serene and comfortable mood. We suggest you either use warm or cool analogous colors and not a combination of both.

For example, look at these three colors that you might see in a nice sunset. Complimentary color schemes are colors that opposite each other on the color wheel. This combination creates a high level of contrast. Our favorite complimentary colors are Blue-Orange and Cyan-Magenta. We don’t usually use them at full saturation or full vibrancy because they would look too intense. Because the pairing includes one warm and one cool color, the effect and be significant and provides a rich and eye-catching contrast.

Triadic color schemes are three colors evenly spaced around a color wheel. This scheme provides a high contrast look without being too strong like complimentary colors might be. Double Complementary color schemes are four colors made up of two sets of two complimentary colors. It allows you to create as much or as little contrast as you want. We recommend you chose two base colors and use its complimentary color as accent colors. This scheme provides more variety than a complimentary color scheme by adding an additional pair of warm and cool colors.

Achromatic color schemes lack color and instead use white, blacks, and greys. The company Apple uses achromatic color schemes in their packaging. This color scheme is considered sophisticated and clean.

This is the classic rule for creating balance. We recommend you give it a try when you create different works of art. This rule is one professional designers pay special attention to.

Color Meaning Color has meaning and evokes emotional responses. This is a established truth and needs to be understood. Here is a simple list of some of the different color and their meanings.

Again, do yourself a favor and do your own internet search on this topic and you’ll see the research is vast and comprehensive. Red: Passion, energy, danger, heat, anger, excitement, aggressive Green: Nature, calmness, peace, health, renewal, harmony Blue: Calm, relaxation, spirituality, trust, tranquil, soothing Cyan:Calmness, empathy, clarity, communication, compassion, stability Magenta: Free-spirit, kindness, warmth, welcoming, supportive Yellow:Energetic, vibrant, happy, warm, optimism Black:Death, power, mysterious, sophistication, formality, elegance Note: Take some time and think about some of your favorite brands and find out why they chose the colors they’re using as their logos and advertising materials.

Become a pro at using colors to maximize your effectiveness as a graphic designer. These values are represented by a numbered sequence. This lesson will show you these values and why they are what they are. We hope this knowledge will help you be a better and more informed designer. Please do yourself a favor and go over this lesson multiple times. We asked a friend of ours who doesn’t know anything about color, and she was a bit confused at first.

She said she didn’t understand how a number could represent a color. So, let’s take the first image below as an example. You can see this in the middle top right-hand corner of the image.

Because it’s CMYK, each letter on the left side of the image corresponds to one of the letters. C is Cyan. M is Magenta. Y is Yellow. K is black.

Each color, for example C or Cyan , is represented by a number from 0 to We understand this is confusing for new users, but we promise that as you begin to understand what’s going on inside each Color Format’s pop-out windows, you’ll see the logic of it. Please contact us by email if you have any questions.

We promise to answer you as fast as we can. Now that we’ve explained why this lesson may be confusing, let’s close our eyes and jump on in The Color Formats we’ll cover in this lesson are: 1. CMYK uses a code that looks like this: , 0, 0, 0. Each number is a percentage see the below image for a reference.

Simple, right? Notice how the in the C value box see yellow rectangle makes the Fill circle see the yellow arrow Cyan. I hope you love the book! Your Instructor Ezra and Ally Anderson.
