- [Narrator] In this example, I am working
with tints and shades of complimentary colors.
And to aid me in this, I am using the color guide panel.
Here's my starting color.
I'll select that and then come to my color guide panel.
You may need to double click
on that color to set it as the base color
and then from the harmony rows, choose complimentary.
So what we now see are two rows,
base color and its compliment.
And I currently have five tints and five shades of each.
The tints being lighter, the shades being darker.
Now, I don't want to go all the way
to the lightest tint or all the way to the darkest shade.
So for that reason, I'm going to come
to the color guide panel and choose color guide options,
and I'll set the number of steps to seven.
Now, I'm going to choose, holding down my command key
or control key on windows,
the base color, and four tints of that color.
And then its compliment, and four shades of that color.
Now from the bottom right of the color guide panel,
I will click to save that as a color group.
Now I can select my letters one by one
and apply the different colors to them.
