To use color film is to breathe
life into your pictures. This, of
course. holds true only If you
know how to use the color me-
dium. Without this knowledge
your color shots may be consid-
erably less attractive than black
and white.
Most of us look upon theory
as rather dull and uninteresting
detail. However, in color photog-
Iraphy, with every exposure gov
erned by the inexorable laws of
chemistry and physics, at least
nodding acquaintance with basic
color theory is indicated.
Long ago we learned that green,
red and blue are the primary
colors in photography. We also
were taught that the visible
spectrum also contains yellow,
violet and orange. 1t has also
been determined that three gen.
eral groupings derive from these
six colors of the visible spect-
rum. One contains the violet and
part OF the blue; another is made
up OF the remainder of the blue
plus the green and part of the
yellow: and the third consists of
the balance of the yellow to-
gether with the orange and the
red. Further simplif1cation would
be achieved by describing the
three groups as blue-violet, green
and red-orange. If beams of
light Of these three colors are
superimposed the result is white
light. These three primary colors
are the basis of the additive color
process.
The Three-Film Process.
The additive process calls for a
projection of black and white
images through three primary
color filters or else the picture is
recorded on a film containing fine
particles of gelatin in the three
primary colors. The impractical
bllity Of this process for general
use is illustrated by the one-shot
camera. Here the image of the SUBJ
Ject is split into three separate
light beams by means of mirrors
or prisms. Each separate beam is
filtered through one of the pri-
mary color filters to a sheet of
panchromatic film. Each of these
negatives, upon development, will
represent in densities the colors
OF the subject. A translation of
these densities back into the
original colors is made by project
ing the images through the red,
blue-violet and green filters.
When superimposed these three
colored light beams will render an
image in the original colors. The
use Of three separate films has
made this process impractical
from the standpoint of general
use.
The process used by practically
all amateurs and, a majority of
the professionals is called the
subtractive color process. In the
beginning, this process consisted
of coloring positive transparencieS1
with dye that was complement
tary to the colors used in making
the three-color separation mega
tives. These dyed positive trans
parencies were superimposed in
exact register and formed a pic
ture identical in coloring to the
original subject.
A complementary color is SIM
ply the sum Of the two remaining
primary colors. A combination of
blue-violet and red-orange, which
photographers call magenta, is
