How Good is Your Colour Sense
Just how good do you think you are at matching hue, saturation, etc.


Here is a site that will test you
. You have to move selectors inside a colour wheel to match a given colour or colours. It only takes a few minutes, it's good fun ...... and gets surprisingly challenging!

So why don't you see just how good you really are?

To get you started I got 7.3 .....

Bearing in mind that cinematography is my profession and I work constantly with colour, both on set and in post production, that's not very impressive!

Can you do better?

7.3

Not very easy at all. And I thought I was doing well.

7.8

That was on the third try. The first time I only got 5.2. It took me a while to figure out what I was supposed to do.

Tricky and very addictive. I've managed 8.0 so far.

Glad you are enjoying it Nick. The only only higher score I have come across is from a professional film post production colourist.
