sorry guys for the inconvenience ;/ I messed that up.

"I'm not a very technical person"... proceeds to give the most technical explanation of color theory the world's ever seen.

I am 50 years old. Never had the funds to go to art school. After years of trying to understand colors on my own to move from my black and gray drawings, I gave up, until today. Thank you so very much for this video. Thanks for the hard work you put into creating this for us. Today I have decided to give it a try again thanks to you. I never thought that a video targeted at photography would help me understand color the way you have helped me understand. Thank you a million times. Your photography work is amazing by the way.

I've recently purchased two courses on colour theory/grading and ironically, this free KZread video is by far the best...well done.

Phew, bit overwhelming watching this the first time. I have been doing photography casually for a couple years however haven’t really dived into theory at all. Every time you think you get descent at something, you find someone else that makes your knowledge look like a needle point, lol. Regardless, this is super well put together and thought out. Thank you for creating this.

My left ear now knows everything about the color grading. Thank you for a wonderful explanation.

Holy... this has tremendous density of good advice. Of course I heard about color wheels and color spaces before, but for the first time I understand why I should listen. And so much collateral advice, e. g. "don´t expose you eyes to mediocre color choices", which is basically "learn from the best" and resonates with my experience (for all kind of things). Thanks for sharing

This is the GOD level of presentations. Opened my eyes yesterday, watching it for a second time now. Its nice to see that instinctively some of the things I was doing with colours, especially workflow in photoshop - it was almost the same! Time to step the game up. THANK YOU! This was priceless. Best accidental find on KZread to date!

I don't know if it's just me, but I get the sense that you're not just a teacher or a professional who shares a few tips and keeps the rest to yourself. You seem more like a mother who generously imparts all her knowledge to her children without hesitation or selfishness. Sometimes when I see people like you, I wonder, "How have you managed to survive?" Because unfortunately, kind-hearted people like you can be taken advantage of by others. MANY THANKS IF YOU ARE STILL SURVIVE

This is the! Most appropriate free video available in KZread so far in terms of colours. I watch it every now and then to memorise it. Quite in depth video about colour. You are very generous to share this with us. Thanks a lot. Appreciate it.

I watched this entire video and did not even feel how that hour and 17 minutes passed..This is epic ..The most important is that now i know how much more i need to think..This was so much packed that it was more thennthe equivalent of 2 years watching other videos related to this topic..I am not a pro photographer ,it s just a late hobby and passion , i am a doctor and i felt myself like 25 years ago when we listened to the lectures of some famous proffessors in medicine..This was really very very powerful...I will watch this every week once for sure for several months for sure because i know the impact and the power it can give..I edited my photos by taste and intuition and spent hours to color grade one photo and could not understand why sometimes in 20 minutes everything looks superb and sometimes after hours and hours nothing works..Knowledge and science are very important things in photography and i feel it needs very serious study to achieve that and more i feel that s the easy part and then comes the hardest having your own style the feel and the art which is something you can never learn either you have it in your genes or not..Thank you for this fascinating information given in under 80 minutes..Instantly subscribed for sure..By the way i ve seen a series of one photo from the examples in a facebook group if not mistaken learn to light and i was instantly captivated cause i ve never seen so much powerful photos in that group before it felt the photos in my bones , that s how colors can impact our nervous system..Thank you again...

Wow, John thanks so much for your positive feedback, It means A LOT to me! And I am very glad you found this helpful. It's been about 15 years I've been thinking about this topic, and people constantly asking me "WHY I am choosing specific color sets" and me answering them - "because it feels right" wasn't good enough. And perhaps I found some rule which has always been in front of our eyes - painters are taught these things at school but apparently us photographers not. Anyway, Thank you! :)

Best lecture I've seen on youtube on photograpy. Killed many myths and doubts I had about photogphy and editing. This is truly a valuable webinar. It talks about art and pshchology than the tecnicalities of photograpy, which many others are more obsessed with. I think this is one of the first principles one should have right before producing media or content. Hate the ppl who complain about minor matters. Should be thankful for making this available.

The photographer looks good, has a good temperament, can talk, has a good voice, and the photos taken are beautiful and advanced

That was the best explanation of colour theory I've ever heard. I spent years at university and paid thousands of dollars to receive some muddled disjointed teaching only to find the best lesson ever offered for free on KZread. Thanks so much for all your effort in preparing this!

FIX AUDIO ON MAC: 1. go in your mac's settings 2. Accessibility 3. Audio 4. turn on "play stereo audio as mono"

Joanna Kustra is the Queen of color. Such a deep understanding. I am colorblind but I still get it.

I can't believe this is for free. I didn't get into film schools because every single one of them has been rejecting me over 3 years now. This course is as close as i will propably ever get to university. Thank you so much for this.

I don't know how many times I'll have to rewatch to make sense of all of this. So informative! Nothing less than a paid course

If watching on a Mac, switch the sound to Mono by going to System Preferences--Accessibility--Audio--Play stereo audio as mono. On iOS it is Settings--Accessibility--Audio/Visual--Mono Audio. Don't forget to switch it back when you're done! Ahh, your ears will thank me and your eyes will thank Joanna. This video rules.

This is unreal. Absolutely the BEST color guide I've ever seen or paid for online or in person. The Best.

This is the kind of video I need to relisten to once a month for a year. So much excellent information but balanced well between theory and application. I've been editing my own photos for 10 years and generally just move the sliders around until I get a pleasing look and often being frustrated when nothing seems to work. This video was like a light coming on in my head, and I feel I will be up half the night in Lightroom going back through old photos.

The quality of this course is beyond perfect. You cover so much. A masterclass.

God bless you, Joanna. I cannot thank you enough for your generosity and time. I've learned more about color in one hour then I have in the last 8 years. This is indeed the most professional, and comprehensive lesson on color grading and color theory. I will be watching it again a few more times. I will also be donating!

This is a lot to digest. But this is definitely a gem for photographers who are trying to understand the science of colors like myself. Thank you so much!

I thought I understood colour, but this video opened my eyes to a new world! Thank you, Joanna, for this outstanding video. I appreciate the huge amount of effort you put into making such a masterpiece.

I studied art for four years and I didn’t get the knowledge I get it from this lecture. Thanks Joanna

This is a brilliant tutorial. I suggest breaking into clips and linking back to this full tutorial as the length is not conducive to clicks. An absolutely fantastic breakdown. I will be watching this many times. Thanks for your content.
