Color Theory and Light Perception

The video tutorial explains the concept of colors, focusing on primary colors of light: red, green, and blue. It describes how color is perceived in the brain through cones in the retina, which resonate with specific photon frequencies. The tutorial also covers how mixing primary colors results in white light and introduces secondary and complementary colors formed by combining primary colors.
