Colours in 'The News'

Complimentary Colours



 Colours I am interested in using need to compliment well with one another, I am using a complimentary colour wheel to help choose my colour scheme. The News currently uses a number of shades of blue, and I am considering using the same. If I was to use blue then the comlimentary colour would be a red/orange. The red/orange would be appropriate as it was make certain elements of my newspaper stand out from the rest.

Also I must consider the economic cost of using colour print, newspapers often restrict their colours to the four (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black)
