Julia Roberts and George Clooney in "Ocean 12". Julia is picky about
colors. A color can be described in different coordinate systems. One is the RGB coordinate system which gives the red, green and blue coordinates of the color vector. Below are some examples of colors in the color cube [0,1] x [0,1] x [0,1]. In the movie clip, the painter is adding some blue to the color, which corresponds to moving "up" a bit in the color cube. |
| (0,0,0) | black | |
| (1,1,1) | white | |
| (1/2,1/2,1/2) | gray | |
| (1,0,0) | red | |
| (0,1,0) | green | |
| (0,1,1/2) | spring green | |
| (1,1/2,1/2) | pink | |
| (0,0,1) | blue | |
| (1,1,0) | yellow | |
| (1,0,1) | magenta | |
| (0,1,1) | cyan | |
| (1,1/2,0) | orange | |
| (1,1,1/2) | khaki | |
| (1/2,1/4,0) | brown |
