Color Management with Toon Boom Palettes色彩管理與香椿臂調色板

Toon Boom uses a palette system to maintain its colors.香椿臂使用調色板系統保持其顏色。 The benefit of this system is that once you create the colors for a character you can easily import that palette into any new cartoons you create, making it easy for you to maintain a consistent design for your cartoon characters.有利於這一制度的是，一旦您建立的顏色字符您可以輕鬆地進口的調色板到任何您創建新的漫畫，使您可以輕鬆地保持一致設計為您的卡通人物。 This tutorial will walk you through the basics of creating a new palette for your cartoon characters, and will show you how to save that palette for future cartoons.本教程將引導您完成基本的創建一個新的調色板的卡通人物，並且將告訴您如何保存這為今後的調色板漫畫。

The plan is to create a new palette for each character.該計劃是建立一個新的調色板的每個字符。 There are some colors that all characters will have accessible to them, like black, white and blue (more on that in a moment).有一些顏色，所有的字符將他們可以進入的，如黑色，白色和藍色（更多的是，在目前） 。

Create a New Palette創建一個新的調色板

If you do not see the Color tab available, select Window — Color Palette to make it available.如果您沒有看到現有的彩色標籤，選擇窗口-調色板，使其可用。 When you look at the Color tab for the first time it will have the default colors loaded.當你看到的彩色標籤，它首次將默認顏色加載。 This is a set of 120 colors with a varying range of hues.這是一套120不同顏色的色調範圍。 Instead of being labeled “blue” or “red”, they’re labeled by number.而不是被標示為“藍色”或“紅色” ，他們標記號碼。 Perhaps you’ll find “color 104″ to be easy to remember but I find it distracting and confusing.也許你會發現“顏色104 ”很容易記住，但我認為分散和混亂。 We’re going to create a new palette and name the colors with a system that is easy for us to remember.我們將創建一個新的調色板的顏色和名稱的系統，很容易讓我們記住。

Select “New Palette” from the dropdown menu in the Color tab.選擇“新的調色板”從下拉菜單中的顏色標籤。 You’ll notice that Toon Boom populates the first color for you, with the ever-so-helpful name of “default”.您會發現，香椿頭臂填充顏色為您，與以往任何時候都那麼有用的名稱“默認” 。 I was thinking about painting my living room a nice shade of default.我想畫我的客廳裡一個不錯的樹蔭默認。 Now that I see it though it may be a bit dark.現在，我認為儘管它可能有點暗。

Double click on the color and it will let you rename it to “black”.雙擊的顏色和它可以讓您重新命名為“黑色” 。

To add a new color to the palette click on the plus sign in the Color tab.要添加新的顏色調色板單擊加號的彩色標籤。 Each time you click on the plus sign it will duplicate whatever color you currently have selected.每當您按一下加號，將重複什麼顏色您目前選定的。 Once it does this you can adjust this color using either the Eyedropper tool to select an existing color or you can manually select a hue via the color wheel (just to the left of the plus sign).一旦這是否可以調整這個顏色使用的吸管工具，選擇一個現有的顏色也可以手動選擇一個色調通過色輪（只是左邊的加號） 。

Your color wheel may look different from what you see here, depending on which operating system you use.您的色輪可能看起來不同於你在這裡看到，這取決於您使用的操作系統。

Adjust the slider to the right of the color wheel all the way to the top, which will give you white.將滑動條調整到正確的色輪到最頂端，這將給你白色。 Rename this new color, and then repeat the process to create a third color.重新命名這個新的顏色，然後重複這一過程，創造三分之一的顏色。 This time you’ll select a bluish color from the wheel, be sure to rename it as well.這個時候你會選擇一個藍顏色的車輪，請務必將它重命名以及。

Typically when laying out a new scene I find it useful to use a bright blue color to sketch out the rough layouts.通常當奠定了新的場景我覺得有用的使用明亮的藍色勾畫出粗佈局。 This is a practice that is common in animation, as it’s easy to see the blue lines for further planning as well as disregard the blue when testing new animation.這是一個做法，是常見的動畫，因為它很容易地看到，藍線的進一步規劃，以及無視藍時測試新的動畫。

From there the sky’s the limit.從天空的極限。 For my relatively simple characters I typically include a base color, a highlight and a shadow.對於我國相對簡單的字符本人通常包括一個基地的顏色，一大亮點和影子。 This will cover most everything I’ll need for that character.這將涵蓋幾乎所有我需要的這種性質。

If you create an accessory that needs it’s own color, a bowtie for example, go ahead and name that color “bowtie”.如果您創建了一個配件，需要它自己的顏色，一個領結例如，繼續和名稱顏色“領結” 。 That way you don’t have to think too much when you go to color the character in at the end of your animation.這樣，你不必想太多，當你到彩色的字符結束時您的動畫。 Traditionally speaking animators don’t like to think anymore than they have to, make it as easy on yourself as you can.傳統上發言動畫不喜歡比他們不再認為必須使這一過程變得更容易對自己可以。

How to Create a Gradient如何創建一個梯度

When you first bring up the color wheel you’ll see an checkbox labeled “Gradient”.當您第一次實現了色輪你們將看到一個複選框“梯度” 。 If you check that box you’ll be able to select the individual colors of the gradient slider directly below the checkbox.如果您選中該框您可以選擇個別顏色梯度滑蓋下方的複選框。 This is where you can also change the gradient to be radial or linear.在這裡，您還可以更改梯度的徑向或線性。 Drag the individual colors to move the positioning within the gradient.拖曳個人色彩，移動定位的梯度。

Name Your Color for Clarity名稱顏色的清晰度

When I first began animating with Toon Boom I used to use the version of the list of colors that did not show the names of the colors (one of the small icons on the Color tab).當我第一次開始與卡通動畫臂我以前使用的版本清單的顏色並沒有顯示的名稱顏色（一個小圖標的顏色選項卡） 。 I was also not renaming the colors.我還沒有命名的顏色。 Eventually though I realized that if I took the time to correctly label the colors I was saving myself a bunch of time down the road.雖然最終我意識到，如果我花時間向正確的標籤的顏色，我自己節約大量的時間在路上。 This premise is the very core of Toon Boom - save yourself buckets of time later by doing the difficult parts now.這一前提的核心香椿臂-保存自己水桶的時間後，做現在的困難部分。

Export the Palette for Future Use出口調色板，以供將來使用

Once you’ve established your color palette, you can export it to be used in later projects.一旦您建立您的調色板，您可以匯出它被用來在以後的項目。 There’sa small icon on the Color tab that you can click to see a menu of options (shown below).有一個小圖標的顏色選項卡上，您可以按一下看到一個菜單選項（如下所示） 。 If you select “Palette — Export Palette” you’ll be presented with a window that will let you rename your palette whatever you like.如果您選擇“調色板-導出調色板”你會看到一個窗口，讓您重新命名您的調色板任何您喜歡。 I recommend using the character’s name for the palette to keep things simple.我建議使用的字符的名稱的調色盤，以保持簡單。
