Color Fundamentals; A Seminar Worth Checking Out

Since I tend to have my hand in all sorts of aspects of the fashion and textile field, I can almost guarantee two things; I regularly have little to no spare time and I always have an overflowing email inbox. It's okay though, cause sometimes one of the many emails I receive to tell me about yet another something that is gong to take up even more of my time, is actually an email in which I have some interest! Which brings me to my point. Today I opened an email from Pantone announcing a seminar on Color Fundamentals, given by X-Rite, "the global leader in color science and technology".

Now, as someone who deals with professionals who claim to be 'color experts", on a daily basis, I can tell you that this is a much needed seminar. Here's the scoop:

This one-day seminar is built for quality control & assurance professionals, lab technicians, parts suppliers, manufacturing specifiers, or anyone who evaluates or approves color.

You’ll walk away with a solid foundation in color and appearance science. From the physics of color to lighting, spectrophotometers and color data, we’ll teach you how to measure, view and understand color data.

Personally, I think if you're in any way involved in design or fabric for a fashion or interior based company, you should consider checking this out.They even encourage participants to bring along their current color conundrum, they would be happy to help you solve it. Crisis averted.
