    SESUG 2016 Paper RV-180 Color Speaks Louder than Words Jaime Thompson, Zencos Consulting ABSTRACT What if color blind people saw real colors and it was everyone else who's color blind? Imagine finishing a Rubik's cube wondering why people find it so difficult. Or relying on the position, rather than the color of a traffic light in determining when to stop and go. Color matters! Color enhances our perspective, it can change how we feel, but it also varies culturally. In western countries, red and white have opposing symbolic meanings to eastern countries which in turn can send the wrong message if misused. Color can fundamentally change a report, therefore, finding the right color palettes for data visualizations is essential. In this paper, I will cover the significance of color and how to pick a palette for your next SAS® Visual Analytics report. INTRODUCTION Color is used in the workplace to improve performance and productivity. Color is used in marketing to establish identity. Color is used in paintings to communicate emotion. Color is used in stores to sell products. Color is everywhere and generally applied purposely. The government of Australia spent several months researching to find the worlds ugliest color. Why? They were looking for a color so distasteful that if it was used for packaging tobacco products it would deter people from smoking [7]. Just as the Australian government needed to pick the right color for a specific job, it is essential to select the right colors for your data visualization so their meanings are conveyed and interpreted correctly.

  • Raw Umber – It’S Ugly and We Love It
    Raw Umber – It’s Ugly and We Love It In 2016, Pantone 448 C was declared as the world’s ugliest color. So ugly, in fact, an Australian research and marketing project covered cigarette packs in the color and successfully discouraged people from smoking. While most people may be disgusted with this green/brown color, often called “Opaque Couché,” we in the scenic art biz call it Raw Umber – and we are madly in love with it! Pantone 448C – The World’s Ugliest Color Rosco’s Off Broadway Raw Umber is one of the few colors most scenic, and prop artists will use straight out the can – no mixing necessary! Once it’s thinned out with water, this paint makes almost anything look old, dirty, and gross with just a pass or two of thin washes and spatter. Because this hue looks like a readily available earth tone, I’m often asked, “isn’t this one of those colors I can pick up at the local paint store?” I have to say that I am unimpressed with the results. Above is a comparison that illustrates the difference between the house paint match and the original Off Broadway Raw Umber. It kind of works, but it ain’t nearly as sexy and I don’t find the house paint as reliable as the Off Broadway. I painted these large vases for the Denver Center in 2007. Note how the drips & washes of Raw Umber add age to the vases and bring out their dimensionality. I also put the Raw Umber to work painting the old, grungy sidewalk set below for Penumbra Theatre Scenic Elements.
