Become a colour management guru in one day
The Colour Collective is offering a one day, try before you buy, colour management course which will include tuition on X-Rite’s new i1 Profiler software. Aimed at wide-format printers, designers, pre-press professionals and photographers, ‘Colour Guru in One Day’ is delivered by colour management expert and author, Rob Griffith.
Colour Guru in One Day will be held at X-Rite’s UK HQ near Manchester in its fully equipped training centre. Available dates are: 30 March, 11 May and 22 June. Each course is limited to eight attendees so everyone will get one-to-one attention and have the time to use and understand the equipment.
Benefiting from a blend of theory to understand the foundations of colour management combined with practical exercises (that include profile creation, implementation, setting up the colour management options in applications such as Adobe Photoshop), attendees are also welcome to bring questions and issues for open discussion on common workflow issues.
Course modules include:
¥ Colour theory
¥ How colour management works
¥ Calibrating and profiling monitors
¥ Using applications to colour manage your images
¥ Colour managing digital photography
¥ Profiling RGB printers
¥ Profiling CMYK printers
¥ Proofing and press standards
¥ Evaluating colour and fine tuning results
¥ Colour managed workflows
‘Colour Guru in One Day’ will cost £150 (+ VAT) per attendee with group discounts available. All attendees will receive a free copy of Practical Colour Management, course notes, email and telephone support after the course and exclusive discounts on products. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
