The target audience for the editorial to be aimed at younger audiences - people who are starting to learn about colour theory (11-14 year olds). The design will hopefully be a revision guide so that way that, I want them to remember what they learn. My aim is to try and make it interactive and fun so that they wouldn't find learning about the subject a chore but instead, fun. I will narrow down the information and try and not to over-complicate the design or the information inside.
One idea I have thought of is to make a standard A5 book and have the first page an image of the primary colours made on acetate; it would then have a pouch at the front which would have 2 additional primary colour wheels so when they put all the wheel under the actual page which has the first wheel, they can create the whole 12 colours (they would have to turn each wheel at different angles so it get the full colour spectrum). The colour wheels would be made from acetate as it is transparent and the colours will mix together as you add the colour wheels behind each other.
I thought this would be fun and kids could play around with it to see what they could make.
I researched into basic colour theory and these are the topics that came up a few times.
Inside the book, I will include the solid colour wheels of the primary, secondary and tertiary colours so that the audience can see the actual colours. It would also have information about the basic colour theory, complimentary colours, RGB & CMYK, shades, tones and tints. I thought that this is enough to start out for people who are new at colour theory.
