I'm on the third year of my Fine Arts degree, and you're the teacher I've never had. Seriously, I learn more with your videos than I did in three years of fine arts university.
@@persiaart6907 Yeah, Marco's series on color on his YT channel taught me far more than 3 semesters (and thousands of dollars) of painting at university.
Bucci is one of the highest quality art teachers on the net. The way he masterfully compresses huge amount of complex knowledge to its most basic essence is breathtaking.
"I don't have to literally make the colors blue, as long as they're going that way on their journey through the color wheel, i can pick a wide variety of cooler colors here" something about color theory never really clicked until I heard it phrased like that- his whole egg study segment felt like actual understanding! where as so many color theory youtube videos simply exposit the same definitions about value and color and all that without actually giving practical advice about how to use it in practice- this was a very comprehensive start to understanding!
This video was SO incredibly informative-- I have it saved so I already plan on returning to it often. But I can't help but feel a bit overwhelmed by all the information )'': I know mastering this stuff takes time and practice, but I just completed a piece for my art account and now I'm looking at it like "oh god, I think the colors are way off considering my light source" LOL! But hey, I'll keep practicing! Thank you so much to Marco Bucci for this!
I love Marco's content. He is always sharing useful information that allows you to see things in a new way. I think watching his videos has made me break a few plateaus already, especially when it comes to coloring.
It took me ages to learn this haha. I learned it via Sam Nielsons course and just tonnes of sphere tests. A nice analogy for anyone who might not get it is to think of the colours as magnets. The more saturated the light or object, the more it will 'pull' towards (creating the resulting colour). So a bright red won't be affect so much by a grey (warm) light source and it will retain its local colour. Then you just adjust the brightness based on the light source strength. Hope this helps :)
THANK YOU FOR THIS 😭😭😭 I always start off my works with grayscale then add some colors using gradient map tool and I often rely on blending modes CUZ I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PAINT PROPERLY WITH COLORS... NOW I KNOW WHERE TO START STUDYING COLORS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS 😭😭😭I'M REALLY REALLY THANKFUL ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omw!! Color theory finally makes sense to me! This was the best video, and it ties everything up so well. I can't wait to try some of this out. Especially more natural lighting effects. I won't share too much more from here. This has been a year worth of self studying for me. I'll let others do there own research. Thank you soooo much!!! 🥰
i think this is the first time ever i turned video speed not to 1,25 but to 0,75. it's so jampacked with information and spot on demonstration that i had to slow down to soak it in :)
After watching the video i felt like I just watched it illegally, I already watched too many color theory video including the one in marco's channel, but i think I understand this more maybe because this is more simplified and focuses more on warm and cool. Thank you for this Proko and Marco! this really helps a lot.
The visuals were so helpful with the color wheel and the ball. Honestly I thought I would never understand how to shift skin tones to make sense in an environment’s lighting…
I decided to go and watch the previous video since you were suggesting I did so, and when I came back to finish watching this video this is where it resumed 13:25
Even though this is probably one of the most useful lighting, color, and skin tone tutorial I've seen on youtube I can not stress enough how helpful it would be to see this concept explained using darker skin tones as well. Mostly because the ochre, blush, and cool tone rule that you mention regarding faces doesn't seem to appear as often or as dramatically on those tones? If anyone has good tutorials or resources to expand on this idea but for dark/black skin please comment below!!
Ben Lustenhauer (might have misspelled that) has a good video on how the 3 color zones do also apply to darker skin tones but how they generally have more saturated colors and the zones are closer in tone with more gradual transitions to shadow.
I kind of lean towards deep reddish purples and blues for darker skin shadows and more of a dull dark pink orange mixture for highlights (depends on lighting, sometimes a watered down blue)
I agree. African, Caribbean, Indian and Olive skin tone studies are way more needed on the web. The deeper the colours, the more subtle the blends are because the hues are at the darker end of the lighting so more skill is required IMO.
wow! I learned about this in my oil painting class but I never truely understood until I saw the way you explained it! I am going to apply this on my current project
I learnt a lot... Which is even more impressive as I don't know how to draw or the fact that I didn't even watch the video to learn how to colour people in a drawing. I watched this video to understand how light affects skin tone so I can better light humans for video 😁
Thanks Marco! If you guys enjoyed this lesson, check out his TH-cam channel - th-cam.com/users/marcobucci

For me it's harder because I'm brazilian and my english is bad. I would appreciate if proko put subtitles. 😔
@@khynnanrodrigues6726 learning english is a must, it open a lot of opportunities for you.
@@micheladax yes, I'm still learning. But I'm still having difficulties. Subtitles would help me a lot!
I owe you one, Marco. My eggs are definitely gonna look a lot better from now on!

FACTS
Best color theory video i have seen. Marco Bucci is a phenomenal teacher!
never thought of the light is pulling the local color toward the light color, literally blow my mind
"I don't have to literally make the colors blue, as long as they're going that way on their journey through the color wheel, i can pick a wide variety of cooler colors here" something about color theory never really clicked until I heard it phrased like that- his whole egg study segment felt like actual understanding! where as so many color theory youtube videos simply exposit the same definitions about value and color and all that without actually giving practical advice about how to use it in practice- this was a very comprehensive start to understanding!
Yesterday I spent hours looking for a video covering this specific topic. Don’t stop spying me Proko, please keep on doing it :)

The best color wheel in any software should come with Marco's tooltips
th-cam.com/video/bKQrJB8fRnY/w-d-xo.html
I finally understand "warm light, cool shadows." Thank you, Marco!!
Marco bucci is literally my favorite artist..on proko..I’m happy
I love Marco's content. He is always sharing useful information that allows you to see things in a new way. I think watching his videos has made me break a few plateaus already, especially when it comes to coloring.
same here!
That "warm color/cool shadow" explanation.. amazing!
The way Marco explains light and color is so amazing, it never really clicked with me until I started watching Marco's channel!

I'm a science student and have no idea why I suddenly embarked on a mission to learn colour theory, but I've been loving every second of it.

I enjoy the content of this youtube channel! I thank your Proko for making these art tips accessible for the general public!
everytime i watch marcos video all the question i left hanging around on art for years have been demistified ty so much
I loved Marco With every fiber of my being
Thank you for explaining the "warm light, cool shadows" I was always confused about this but now that you explain this it makes so much sense
Holy crap -- how is this information free? Thank you Marco and Proko team! Merry Christmas!
th-cam.com/video/bKQrJB8fRnY/w-d-xo.html
OMG it is too easy to understand the color tips. this is the best i’ve ever seen ..i really appriciate it
U just read my mind... I was literally searching for a vid abot dis topic.... THX
Most off Marco bucci's videos are good tools to learn about color dynamics, you should check them out.
@@nigelbaboolal5072 ok kk thx
What's this topic called?
Omg, i look so much about how this work but anyone can't explain correctly and thank god i found your channel. I finally understand this.
Thats one of the most precious knowledge about light and color i've ever seen
th-cam.com/video/bKQrJB8fRnY/w-d-xo.html😍
friend, there is no "dislike" is surprising, I love this channel!
th-cam.com/video/bKQrJB8fRnY/w-d-xo.html
This is the best video on how to work with light i have ever seen!
A perfect collaboration of my favourite two masters! 💐🙏🏻♥️
Love it-I’m a little late to Bucci’s lessons. His breakdowns are accessible and intuitive-looking forward to diving into his channel.
After watching the video i felt like I just watched it illegally, I already watched too many color theory video including the one in marco's channel, but i think I understand this more maybe because this is more simplified and focuses more on warm and cool.
Thank you for this Proko and Marco! this really helps a lot.
th-cam.com/video/bKQrJB8fRnY/w-d-xo.html
That's literally what I've been struggling with. Hands down the best video explaining light and local color relationship. Thanks a ton
The visuals were so helpful with the color wheel and the ball. Honestly I thought I would never understand how to shift skin tones to make sense in an environment’s lighting…
insanely helpful, probably one of the best lessons I've seen on how light affects colour, thank you! :)
Why does this actually help me so much, most of the time with videos on color theory ppl sound like their speaking gibberish 😭
I've been looking for color theory information for a while, and this is easily the most helpful resource I've found so far. Well done.
As Always Perfect stuff by Marco

I decided to go and watch the previous video since you were suggesting I did so, and when I came back to finish watching this video this is where it resumed 13:25
I always heard that shadows are cooler but I never knew why. Now I understand and can play around with the idea!
i've watched a lot of color theory videos and i swear Marco's videos are always the ones i come back to
I’ve been a fan of yours for decades Marco. Great video!!!!
This is the best video on this topic I have seen on YT!!! Thank you!!!! I get it now! 🙌🏾
This is the most helpful and informative video I've watch on color - ever. I appreciate this more than you know, thank you so much!
Sir you opened my eyes
Definetly the best tutorial series i seen that REALY helped me, a lot. Now i can use the Loomis method to draw my portraits! Thank you!

Thanks Proko, an eye opener for a young padawan
Marco Bucci never disappoints! Ive been struggling with a personal project and this tutorial doesn’t come at a better time!
So well explained it’s impossible not to understand
My drawing life has changed after I watched Proko's channel. Thank you so much to Proko and other artists! You guys are the best.
This was maybe the most useful video on colour I’ve ever watched cheers.
Dude,Marco explains those things so perfectly
Nice video!

Good job, Proko team. Keep making Marco making more youtube video.

This was very helpful. Color theory is the last of the fundamentals I’m studying.
Good luck with it!
Definitely subscribing to that dude channel, he is explaining so well with good demonstration !!!
This video is so informative, thanks Marco and proko
you're the best ever! thanks a lot for this and for every lesson really helpful! And happy holydays!
